The /rescue build system here has three goals:
|
|
|
|
1) Produce a reliable standalone set of /rescue tools.
|
|
|
|
The contents of /rescue are all statically linked and do not depend on
|
|
anything in /bin or /sbin. In particular, they'll continue to
|
|
function even if you've hosed your dynamic /bin and /sbin. For
|
|
example, note that /rescue/mount runs /rescue/mount_nfs and not
|
|
/sbin/mount_nfs. This is more subtle than it looks.
|
|
|
|
As an added bonus, /rescue is fairly small (thanks to crunchgen) and
|
|
includes a number of tools (such as gzip, bzip2, vi) that are not
|
|
normally found in /bin and /sbin.
|
|
|
|
2) Demonstrate robust use of crunchgen.
|
|
|
|
These Makefiles recompile each of the crunchgen components and include
|
|
support for overriding specific library entries. Such techniques
|
|
should be useful elsewhere.
|
|
|
|
3) Produce a toolkit suitable for small distributions.
|
|
|
|
Install /rescue on a CD or CompactFlash disk, and symlink /bin and
|
|
/sbin to /rescue to produce a small and fairly complete FreeBSD
|
|
system.
|
|
|
|
These tools have one big disadvantage: being statically linked, they
|
|
cannot use some advanced library functions that rely on dynamic
|
|
linking. In particular, nsswitch, locales, and pam all
|
|
rely on dynamic linking.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To compile:
|
|
|
|
# cd /usr/src/rescue
|
|
# make obj
|
|
# make
|
|
# make install
|
|
|
|
Note that rebuilds don't always work correctly; if you run into
|
|
trouble, try 'make clean' before recompiling.
