3a28079136 Don't bogotify pkg_add's stderr. 1997-02-14 23:00:01 +00:00

a85842ff23 Revert some of the previous change - on second thought... 1997-02-14 21:59:26 +00:00

c5566bcff7 o Try to be more aggressive about reading in old configuration data
so that we're more useful in multi-user mode.  This is still not
  100%, but it pulls in a lot more than it used to.  Some of the "composite"
  variables in /etc/sysconfig are going to take more work.

o Always write /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts if it makes sense to do
  so.

o Reset media properly when reselecting.  Longstanding bogon.

o Pull SIGPIPE handling out of package.c; I'm actually hoping to handle
  this differently shortly.

o Fix bug where cancel in TCP setup dialog still checked data fields.
  I think this closes a PR, but I will have to go look.

8055777430 It's easier to go forwards than backwards with this, and the RELENG_2_1_0
sysinstall was already broken (I think there's a PR for this somewhere).
This will require some additional changes elsewhere, like bringing in pw.

4c5f552d9a Cosmetic tweaks.
Also redirect stderr to Debug when running multiuser.

5214787fd5 OK, I've got two ideas to file in the "really seemed like a good idea
at the time, but on further reflection..." bucket with these changes.

1. Checking the media before frobbing the disks was a fine idea, and
   I wish it could have worked, but that leads to a rather difficult
   situation when you need to mount the media someplace and you're about
   to:

	a) Chroot away from your present root.
	b) Newfs the root to be.

   You're basically screwed since there's no place to stick the mount
   point where it will be found following the newfs/chroot (and eliminating
   the chroot in favor of just using the "root bias" feature would work
   great for the distributions but not the pkg_add calls done by the
   package installer).

2. Automatic timeout handling.  I don't know why, but alarm() frequently
   returns no residual even when the alarm didn't go off, which defies
   the man page but hey, since when was that so unusual?  Take out timeouts
   but retain the code which temporarily replaces the SIGINT handler in
   favor of a more media-specific handler.  This way, at least, if it's hanging
   you can at least whap it.  I think the timeout code would have been losing
   over *really slow* links anyway, so it's probably best that it go.

This should fix NFS, tape & CDROM installs again (serves me right for getting
complacent and using just the FTP installs in my testing).

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

e5b09b7d10 Do something I've wanted to do for quite some time - collapse all the
common layout code into some work functions and make all the layout-using
routine adopt them.  Also reorganize includes and generally clean up.

0fd6d431cf Do a few things I've been threatening to do for a long time:
1. Don't use the MSDOSFS code for accessing FreeBSD distribution data.
   Use Robert Nordier's stand-alone DOS I/O library for the purpose.
   It this works as well as Robert says it does, it should drastically reduce
   (or even eliminate) our "I can't install from my DOS partition!" calls.

2. As a result of the above, go to stdio file descriptors for all
   media types.

3. Taking advantage of #2, start using libftpio for FTP transfers instead
   of maintaining our own parallel version of the FTP transfer code.
   Yay!  I ripped something out for a change!

5def50038a Use macros for package names so it's easier to update them in one
place (sysinstall.h) when packages change rev.

Change the way that the routing daemon is configured entirely, to
placate Joerg.  Also auto-load gated if it's specified, while we're at it.

0383bc6a90 Some cosmetic tweaks, attempt to fix package wait problem by checking
for error return as well (not sure if this is it, but it's one possible
explanation).

8658743f95 A number of improvements in the way statistics are printed, add a "chroot"
option for installing distributions and/or packages to somewhere other than /,
say for a case where you're installing to an external disk on some other
machine's behalf.  More miscellaneous fixes to various problems I stumbled
across while adding this stuff.

cf1647cd2f Whoops! Now that I'm decompressing docs into /tmp, it's important to
make sure that /tmp is there first! :-)  While I'm at it, clean up the
somewhat inexplicably bogus Mkdir() function.

2f833c17e4 Have both distribution and package extraction screens display the
transfer speed in KB/sec while fetching stuff; this gives you a better
idea if your link has crashed or is behaving oddly.

16185b823a Fix some long-standing malloc bugs in the package handling code (freeing garbage
in one place, leaking memory in another).

Add a facility to invoke subsystems directly by naming them on
sysinstall's command-line when running post-install.  A replacement
for pkg_manage might, for example, be `/stand/sysinstall configPackages'

Fix bogon where upgrade shell was entered with tty modes spammed.

Fix bug with release name checking in ftp_strat.  Turned a bunch of
bogus exit()s into proper calls to systemShutdown().

2113a60c4b Bring this into sync.
I still have a _very very annoying_ display bug which occurs when a menu
item causes a submenu to be displayed - the screen repaints for the original
menu (which is restored upon return from the submenu) are off by about 4
characters.  I've tried restoring the screen, the cursor position, you name
it - same deal.  Grrrr!  This commit is my first step in trying to get someone
else to help me look into this one since I'm just tearing my hair out at this
point!

871ef591ef Major enhancements to the package adder (next step is to use the new dialog
functions to make the menus far less klunky, but one thing at a time).

Fix bug that had debug output spewing uselessly on vty2 when running multiuser.

40ae4689df Lots of fixes:
1. Revamp package installer to use new dependency lists and also
   pkg_add's new `read from stdin' mode to prevent a copy of the package
   from hitting the disk unnecessarily.

2. More fixes for running "not as init" - don't get upset if CDROM already
   mounted, do the right thing instead.

3. If running as init, assume first-time install and _don't show the
   (W)rite option in the fdisk screen.

4. Many other little tweaks, some of which will have to wait for fuller testing
   until I can create a boot floppy (testing certain system-destroying
   features of sysinstall can be a royal pain).  Expect some more commits.

0b518254c0 1. Add Coranth Gryphon's Apache WWW server setup screen.
2. Fix an infinite recursion bug in FTP retry.  Tricky, this FTP install!
3. Add messaging routines for scripts.
4. Fix yet more bogons.  I think I'm fixing them faster than they're growing,
   but it's hard to say.  I'm really glad we're throwing this code away for
   2.2!

b462d27c89 Style changes. Clear the screen before a lot of error dialogs so that they
don't bogusly restore the screen to the message that was the cause of the
abort.  That resulted in lots of weird flickering dialog boxes that appeared
to be displayed out of sequence.

o More attempts to actually write the documentation in english.
o Update docs to contain more 2.1-centric information.
