Yury G. Kudryashov 867d814d27 Remove unneeded copy of lvm in initrd.
Something replaces symlinks in initrd with copies. Removed symlinks to lvm and
changed syntax (vgscan -> lvm vgscan).

Eelco Dolstra 15e3ec8dec * Additional debug options for stage 1 (can be passed on the kernel
command line):
  - debug1devices: drop into a shell after modules have been load and
    device nodes have been created.
  - debug1mounts: drop into a shell after file systems have been
    mounted.

Eelco Dolstra 7243eb1d1d * Create /bin on the CD to suppress the /bin/sh symlink creation
error.
* Put the top-level system config on the CD, otherwise root doesn't
  get a working login shell on the CD (and the system PATH is broken
  as well).

Eelco Dolstra 8cf1eceb0a * Allow multiple file systems to be mounted in stage 1 (i.e., from the

Eelco Dolstra 11e4d36db1 * Look for the CD-ROM in /sys/block, not /sys/devices. Don't look for
a "media" file since SCSI CD-ROM drives don't have it (and
  supposedly it's going away in IDE too).
* Create the device node automatically from the "dev" file in
  /sys/block/$bla.

the flag "safemode" is specified on the kernel command line, also
  disable the hardware scan.

  in stage 2 (in addition to the initrd modules in
  boot.initrd.kernelModules).

installation to prevent horrible accidents.

Eelco Dolstra 9986bda673 * Move the stuff in boot-stage-2-init.sh that doesn't have to happen
at boot time into a separate script.  This will allow us to change
  the configuration without rebooting (provided that the configuration
  doesn't have a different kernel, init, etc.).

Armijn Hemel 89df039e35 * store the value of hotplug in /etc/sysconfig/hotplug and cat this value

Armijn Hemel 78767321ce add something so we modprobe some stuff for at least one family of USB
controllers (uhci-hcd). This is of course not very elegant: even if a
machine does not have USB, or another USB controller this module will loaded.
A better way would be to let some hardware probing program run first, but
that is "future work"

2006-01-04 18:19:23 +00:00
Armijn Hemel fe355bba78 replace a lot of tools we initially use with statically linked versions.
This reduces the ramdisk installer size with a few megabytes when gzipped,
but with about 40 MB when unpacked in memory.

There are a few improvements possible:

- strip the binaries. This saves another few MBs.
- only copy the binaries we really need to /bin or /sbin. This could reduce
the size of the installer a lot, especially with util-linux, of which we
don't use that many tools at all.
- try to move some packages we link with glibc right now (like util-linux) to
dietlibc. This will not work for bash, already tried that.
- try to use busybox as a replacement for everything.
