|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm delay.4th
|
|
.Nd FreeBSD debugging boot module
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The file that goes by the name of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is a set of commands designed to add debugging capabilities to
|
|
.Xr loader 8 .
|
|
The commands of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
by themselves are not enough for most uses.
|
|
Please refer to the
|
|
examples below for the most common situations, and to
|
|
.Xr loader 8
|
|
for additional commands.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Before using any of the commands provided in
|
|
.Nm ,
|
|
it must be included
|
|
through the command:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl include delay.4th
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This line is present in
|
|
.Pa /boot/beastie.4th
|
|
file, so it is not needed (and should not be re-issued) in a normal setup.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The commands provided by it are:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width disable-module_module -compact -offset indent
|
|
.It Ic delay_execute
|
|
Executes the [string] procedure stored in the
|
|
.Ic delay_command
|
|
environment variable after
|
|
.Ic loader_delay
|
|
seconds.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the optional
|
|
.Ic delay_showdots
|
|
environment variable is set, a continuous series of dots is printed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
During the duration, the user can either press Ctrl-C (or Esc) to abort or
|
|
ENTER to proceed immediately.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The environment variables that effect its behavior are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width bootfile -offset indent
|
|
.It Va delay_command
|
|
The command to be executed by
|
|
.Ic delay_execute .
|
|
.It Va loader_delay
|
|
The duration (in seconds) to delay before executing
|
|
.Ic delay_command .
|
|
.It Va delay_showdots
|
|
If set, will cause
|
|
.Ic delay_execute
|
|
to print a continuous series of dots during the delay duration.
|
|

|
|

.Bl -tag -width /boot/loader.4th -compact
