I have changed source (has collissions now unfortunatly) for both 4.x and 5.0 on teh test machine biggie.vicor-nb.com It is a scratch machine but it has huge (>1TB) disks (3 of them) so you can test it there if you want.. It has an up-to-date (mirrored sevveral times daily PLUS whenever you run "cvsup /etc/cvsupfile" CVS tree and /usr/src i schecked out.. i.e. a good environment give the word and you can have alogin in fact you already havea wheel account.. login jhb password sysinstall disks twe0, twe1 and da2 are scratch.. do what you wish with them source modified for 4.7 to handle th large disks is in: /mnt/usr/src/lib/libdisk and /mnt/usr/src/release/sysinstall (/mnt is a full 4.x world.. cvs works for the sources checked out there too. so 'cvs diff' will give teh patches for 4.x. the changed sources for 5.x are in /usr/src/usr.sbin/sysinstall.changed and /usr/src/lib/libdisk.changed but I think that they got filled with collissions when I tried to update and the were changed to use 64 bit ints.. a more ambitious change. (but it did work before the collisisons) Julian > > > On Tue, 3 Dec 2002, Robert Watson wrote: > > > >> rwatson 2002/12/03 07:41:42 PST > >> > >> Modified files: > >> en/releases/5.0R todo.sgml > >> Log: > >> Trim the fdisk editor bug -- it's now been fixed thanks to > >> nyan@ and jhb@.
