Modified files:
sys/i386/boot/biosboot Makefile README.serial boot.c boot.h
io.c probe_keyboard.c serial.S sys.c
Log:
- Added support for "dual" internal/serial consoles (-D flag). If -D is set,
then all i/o from the boot blocks is to and from both the internal console
and the serial console. -D has no effect on the kernel (-h decides the
kernel serial console as usual). -D should normally be set in /boot.config.
- Get help messages from /boot.help. You should copy boot.help from the
biosboot directory to the root directory on the boot drive when you
install new boot blocks.
- New, less invasive keyboard probe. Enable keyboard probe dynamically (-P
flag). Should probably never be used (use -h instead).
- Fixed/improved initialization from boot.config. It didn't interact correctly
with the NAMEBLOCK option, and the initialization of the drive/unit/partition
didn't stick when a non-default kernel name was entered.
- Don't reset or forget the default drive/unit/... or kernel name so often.
- Set the default kernel name to something unbootable after `?'.
- Display the defaults better.
- Removed PROBE_KEYBOARD_LOCK option (use -h instead).,
- Removed BOOT_FORCE_COMCONSOLE option (use device flag 0x20 instead).
- Removed -a (RB_HALT) flag. This flag is only used for reboots.
