Update of /b/source/CVS/src/etc
In directory sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu:/usr/src/etc
Modified Files:
master.passwd
Log Message:

Use freefall.cf as sendmail prototype file, it is more realistic than the
tcpproto.cf file for a FreBSD system. Fix so that obj dir is created in
sendmail/cf/cf as to not polute the source tree and to have the Makefile
in there do the right things.
Remove all the extra /dev/fd0?* entries on the floppies, they where using
up all the inodes and are not needed at this time.
Temporarily remove the floppy target from release: untilit is
fixed.
This file has lots more work coming, but to get the 1.1 BETA out I am
going to hand craft the floppies :-(.
Further it implements crontab -e.
I moved cron from /usr/libexec to /usr/sbin where most daemons are
that are run from rc. That also gets rid of the ugly path crond
used to have in ps(1) outputs. Further I renamed it to cron, as
Paul Vixie likes it and is done by NetBSD.
NOTE VERY WELL THE FOLLOWING:
1) Systems crontab changed. Every users crontab resides in /var/cron
*EXCEPT* root's. This is a special crontab as it resides in
/etc. Further it is the *ONLY* crontab file in which you specify
usernames. See /usr/src/etc/crontab. This is also done by BSDI's
BSD/386 as far as I know (they provided the patches for it anyway)
2) So you *must* delete root's crontab and reinstall the copy
in /etc from /usr/src/etc.
'Must' is to much: the old installed crontab will work but cron
will also try to 'run' /etc/crontab.
3) Last but not least: cron's logging is now done via syslog. Note
that logging by cron is done lowercase when it logs about itsself
and uppercase when it logs user events, like installing a new crontab.
The default logfile file is the same as before:
syslog.conf:cron.* /var/cron/log

This uses xargs instead. My slip line's down so I can't check it in

I've finally figured out (one of the reasons) why I can't run MS-Windows
after running FreeBSD 1.0...*sometimes*.
Here's your first clue. This is what your MS-Windows video drivers are called
if you run a Number 9 GXE video card:
/dos/windows/system/#9gxetc.drv
/dos/windows/system/#9gxe.drv
Now minor looks like UU DDDDDD, UU - unit, DDDDDD - density.
If density == 0, CMOS-detect format assumed.
For old users/pgms use fake partitions now, i.e.
ln fd0 fd0[a-h]
No new floppy names added (expect fd? and rfd?),
because don't have agreement yet, so make devices
only for CMOS-detected formats.
E-mail: <sir@kiae.su>, <vak@zebub.msk.su>
added new /dev/wt entries for wt.c version 1.3
8) Some controllers support only 1024 block length.
Setting WT_BSIZE bit in device minor number turns on this mode.
Minor number structure:
0bfffuuu
Fields:
uuu - Unit number. It's possible to install
up to three tape controllers on the same machine,
using DRQs 1..3. Hence, unit number can lie
in range 0..2.
fff - Tape format number:
0 - /dev/rwt0 - default density (auto select)
1 - /dev/rwt0a - QIC 11 (obsolete)
2 - /dev/rwt0b - QIC 24 (60 megabytes)
3 - /dev/rwt0c - QIC 120 (120 megabytes)
4 - /dev/rwt0d - QIC 150 (150 megabytes)
5 - /dev/rwt0e - QIC 300 (300 megabytes?)
6 - /dev/rwt0f - QIC 600 (600 megabytes?)
b - Long block size flag. With this bit set,
the driver will perform all i/o operations
with the controller using 1024-byte
blocks, instead of 512 ones.
Some controllers need it (CMS for example).
If you Wangtek controller does not stream well,
you can try to use /dev/rWt0 device instead
of /dev/rwt0 (uncomment needed lines in /dev/MAKEDEV
to create it).
Block interface (writing blocks less than 2048 bytes) is not functioning
pwoperly. Use raw interface instead.
Thanks to all who helped to test it on the following hardware:

Editors Note: tmp was listed in the CPIO_FILES section and thus the
entire contents of ${DESTDIR}/tmp would end up on the cpio floppy. This fix
moves tmp to CPIO_DIRS so that no longer happens.

"NO", sendmail is not started.) Also, always start the portmapper regardless
of the value of $nfs_server; this should prevent the inetd complaints we

Adaptec controllers are now 154x and 174x series, no more reference

Add the fact that the Mitsumi CDROM controller and drive are now

running portmapper. These are site specific functionality and should only
be enabled for sites that want them, not by default.
These services REQUIRE portmapper to be running
with a Makefile override. The default is floppy5 since all distribution
floppies must be <= 1.2Mb so that every one can use them.
If you want to make 1.44MB floppies with more space on them do a
setenv FLOPPY floppy3
before running make.

I went to make myself some boot floppies straight off the dist
today and ran into the fact that I'm using a 3.5" floppy as my drive A,
so I did the following (you can still use floppy5 as your default -
I just have it set to floppy3 for my machine).
files from a MS-DOS partition.
Minor cleanup:
fixed spelling error in inst1.install
capitalized sentences in kc.profile
reworded initial load_fd options
partition of the boot disk. So we have yet another medium via
which to load the FreeBSD distribution files. load_fd() has
options for listing and (if reading from the C: drive) changing
directories.
load_fd's notation assumes that the first Primary partition on
disk is the DOS drive C: (since this and only this one is mounted
by install). Otherwise, the notation may be a bit confusing.
We'll know the assumption is bad if people complain about
not finding files on their "C:" drive...
Added a device file existence check to kc.profile.
first) Primary (un-Extended) DOS partition, providing /dev/xx0h
is available. It is mounted on /dos by default. The /etc/fstab
entry omits the dump and fsck fields, i.e.:
/dev/xx0h /dos pcfs rw
The Secondary DOS partition is not used (System ID 0xF2), because I don't
know what that is.
2) Fixed default sizes so that if someone attempts to install BSD on a 24 Mb
partition by accepting defaults, they don't end up with a 1 Mb /usr
partition (up to USRMIN Mb's). In this case, all space is split between
swap and root.
TODO:
1) Extend load_fd() to support loading distribution files directly from
the DOS partition of the hard disk.
2) Provide translated parameters to the install program (maybe
add an option to fdisk). Currently, the true geometry is used as
default, which is inappropriate for coexistence with DOS.
3) Support installing on multiple or secondary disks.
