Poul-Henning Kamp 7b4b6096f4 dd conv=osync. More distributions. 1994-11-18 01:05:05 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 886f34fde6 Add another mirror site and adjust the menu to note that not all
sites are created equal.
1994-11-17 16:18:35 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 6914768e93 Yow! Ok, distributions should now be fully auto-checksumming, provided
that Poul builds the rest of the dists properly.  I'll run this over the
XFree86 dist, but the rest will be up to him.  Check bindist rule for
the single line to add - it's trivial.
1994-11-17 15:20:04 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 1cdab3d432 Add extra scripts to the Makefile. Add another mirror site to
instdist.sh
1994-11-17 14:18:02 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 8f00e74801 Eliminate the use of cpio in extraction. The stupid thing whines too much,
and it doesn't support --unlink.  I think it's time to nuke cpio completely
out of the installation process, unless someone can think of a really good
reason to keep it (and don't say multiple volume extraction since we a) don't
use it anywhere anyway, and b) tar supports that too, now).
1994-11-17 11:53:14 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard d9a5a8b8c2 Add a line to automatically generate CKSUMS file for the bindist. 1994-11-17 07:11:30 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 075b19c88f Add cksum to the cpio floppy - automated checksumming of the *dist
tarballs is just one step away.
1994-11-17 07:09:22 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard f3ac09ee9a 1. Split these scripts into smaller distinct functional units that will
be callable _after_ installation in 2.1's system admin tools.  This is
   almost totally revamped now.

2. Support installation from DOS partition or floppy.

3. Many stray bogons eliminated.  Perhaps a few introduced.  One more
   rev should fix this up, once I've spammed my test machine a couple of
   times.

4. Installation from CD now *really* possible.

5. Allow user to specify arbitary subdirectories for NFS mountpoints -
   UFS, NFS and CD distributions now share many common elements.
1994-11-16 07:51:45 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard ef3e2ecfbd Change CD devices to the correct ones. 1994-11-15 13:40:00 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 5dab37e2b3 Add back tar - I'm not sure where it went again! I know that
cpio reads tar files, but this gives you "tar" in its old familar
way, which is important for those trying to read the old extract.sh'd
bindist.
1994-11-15 08:10:35 +00:00
Poul-Henning Kamp 48327bc9af Final changes. Now "make distribute" should work as advertised. 1994-11-14 20:56:17 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard c4115cc446 There were some bogons with redirection to /dev/ttyv1 lurking here.
Fix them.
1994-11-13 07:27:36 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard e2855afcca Adjust the size of the input box. It looks a bit funkier now,
but at least the code is smaller!
1994-11-13 06:32:40 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 1d9dacf401 Support ufs installations. 1994-11-13 03:48:55 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 0429030d68 Disable the building of the evil floppy images. We blew through the
1.2MB barrier again.  I tell ya, Poul, it's a losing game!  You shave
50 bytes off, the next change takes 100 back, and this is just ALPHA!
The 1.2MB weenies will _just have to buy new drives_!
1994-11-13 01:46:22 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 89dcf33514 Change the name of the TROUBLE-2.0 file to TROUBLESHOOTING; it just makes
more sense.
1994-11-13 01:20:37 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 4cdfb89cfd Install the soon-to-be-written troubleshooting file. 1994-11-12 20:40:14 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 21c3b39552 Erm, on second thought, if it's named `mkextract.sh' then everyone
will think that it builds the extract.sh in THIS directory, which it
most certainly doesn't.  Rename it to be a bit longer, but more explanatory.
1994-11-12 20:39:15 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 2da486aa70 Add the mkextract.sh script I use for the XFree86 distribution, just so
I have a master copy someplace.
1994-11-12 20:37:41 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard ed9a3c50d8 Add dmesg. 1994-11-12 20:36:28 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 263f1796af When this is run manually, the myname protection stuff probably isn't
needed in all cases.  Guard against this.
1994-11-12 09:55:29 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard d86019dd9b Drat! For CDROM, we need to mount_cd9660 not just mount (slap!). 1994-11-12 06:22:25 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 46cf4f38ae Remove ed2. 1994-11-12 06:12:27 +00:00
Poul-Henning Kamp 32b9d0746e Try to align to floppy image to a number of sectors to avoid people
making bad floppies.
1994-11-12 05:47:28 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard c0141fe81f I blew the redirects on the slip stuff. 1994-11-12 05:04:21 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard dfd2c8103a Point to new README file location. 1994-11-12 02:25:04 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 3695f7d1ae ncftp can't interact with us. Redirect its input from /dev/null. 1994-11-11 23:29:26 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard aa638b7a35 Make this use cpio, not tar. Poul-H is going to get his weenie whacked
for this.
1994-11-11 23:27:05 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard d9b4b736b0 Add basename to to the cpio floppy. Thanks, Lars! 1994-11-11 22:27:12 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard a3f2401e48 Try and make this just a little bit more self-explanatory. Still
a LONG way to go..
1994-11-11 10:55:02 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 0ec708c963 Whoops! cu == tip. 1994-11-11 08:47:34 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 99a164544a Make sure /var/log exists so that cu doesn't complain. 1994-11-11 08:34:03 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 97fa4b4e3c Add cu (and cu slip dialog) so that poor SLIP users can dial their modems
before initiating a slip transfer.
1994-11-11 08:33:04 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 61c0812173 Add de0 to list of ethernet drivers. This list will be dynamic shortly..

Add domain to resolv.conf
More general cleanup in preparation for this script being split into
several scripts.
1994-11-11 07:33:50 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard e903ac3586 Add ft. 1994-11-10 23:44:35 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard eaad9ab057 Experimental floppy-tape suport. 1994-11-10 23:43:25 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard eb1452c54a Enable support for Lucifer's floppies.
More stylistic drick-drack in bininst.
1994-11-10 05:27:57 +00:00
Poul-Henning Kamp d67fe71073 Added des to the food for this. 1994-11-10 03:22:27 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 1690fb01f0 Small stylistic change - don't spawn a subshell, just use the -C flag to tar. 1994-11-10 02:50:42 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 830d93f8fd Move the echo to the right place in case the bindist has already extracted. 1994-11-10 02:47:06 +00:00
Poul-Henning Kamp e3245077f6 Make it extract anything it finds... 1994-11-10 02:24:47 +00:00
Poul-Henning Kamp 7bb7781dd6 Really build bindist... 1994-11-09 23:07:04 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 0b25c3665d [Changes are now for BETA]
This attempts to make the installion a little less grating by not
clearing the screen every time a like-sized dialog is going to splat
on top of another one.  If you don't want the screen to clear, set
clear="", otherwise leave it set to (or set it back to) "--clear".

It can't be set to "" all the time since then small dialogs appearing
on top of big dialogs look funky.
1994-11-09 23:02:11 +00:00
Poul-Henning Kamp 00063f88d5 some things Jordan forgot... 1994-11-09 20:27:32 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 6eca28c059 One last formatting change. Done. 1994-11-09 20:16:09 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard 414f020212 Remove ppp from the list of options - we don't even have ppp in the default
kernel, and ppp people can generally use SLIP.

A few more formatting changes.

Make slip installation work.
1994-11-09 02:49:04 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard ba4175f496 Sigh. I'm sleepy, and I just read this again. Have it make sense this time. 1994-11-09 00:10:04 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard eefaaf356d Add a long-needed comment about logging in as root. 1994-11-09 00:05:42 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard aac9a41cfc Just some last tweaks to make NFS install more friendly. 1994-11-08 23:59:04 +00:00
Jordan K. Hubbard ba48a7c378 Use mount_nfs directly for NFS install.
Add mount_nfs to the cpio floppy.

Thanks, Michael R.!
