Shea Levy bb5d2d53fe try isn't used, so use the more compatct seq 10 2012-06-27 09:43:54 -04:00
Mathijs Kwik 061a998840 luks root: c-style for-loop -> seq 
The ash shell no longer supports this bash-specific syntax.
This left systems that use luksroot unable to boot.

Eelco Dolstra e64bdda52b Don't use weird 777 permissions on unmounted /dev/shm 2012-06-27 09:35:53 -04:00
Eelco Dolstra 980ba4d5a5 stage-1: mount /proc, /sys, /dev in the target root 
The switch_root in BusyBox doesn't do this (while the one in
util-linux does).  So we have to do this ourselves.

Eelco Dolstra 9692495df0 Use BusyBox in the initrd 
Using BusyBox instead of Bash plus a bunch of other tools gives us a
much more feature-full, yet smaller initrd.  In particular, BusyBox
contains networking commands such as ip and a DHCP client, useful for
NFS boots.  It's also much more convenient for rescue situations
because the shell has builtin readline support and there are many more
tools (including vi).

Peter Simons 25155a02e6 Add findutils dependency for /tmp cleaning. 
This dependency is only added if the setting is activated.

Peter Simons fbf53168f3 Add new option config.boot.cleanTmpDir. 
This option is to control if the user wants to have its /tmp directory cleaned
up during system boot.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 9125d3af50 Adding creation of /dev/ptmx in stage-2, in case stage-1 did not run. 
Upstart requires /dev/ptmx since its 1.4, and will lock up in case of it missing.

I was hitting this in the fuloong, where I don't use the nixos initrd.

Eelco Dolstra 4f4c529979 Stage 1 improvements: 
* Load scsi_wait_scan after all other kernel modules to ensure that
  all SCSI device nodes have been created.
* Increase the timeout for the appearance of the root device to 20
  seconds.
* Do a "udevadm settle" just after the root device has appeared to
  make sure that udev isn't accessing the device anymore (hopefully).
  On EC2 (Xen), I've seen fsck on the root fail randomly with "device
  in use" errors.

Eelco Dolstra 6f03065dce * Move the setting of $MODULE_DIR to modprobe.nix. 
* Add a slash to the end of $MODULE_DIR, as expected by depmod.  (Not
  that running depmod from the command line is all that useful, since
  you can't use it to update the tree in the Nix store.  But at least
  commands like "depmod -n" work now.)  Reported by Kirill Elagin on
  IRC.

slow: calling basename in a loop somewhere has a noticable impact on

Eelco Dolstra 362d1389d3 * mountall: make the "console output" Upstart stanza do its work. We 
were redirecting output to /var/log/upstart/<job>, so it didn't work
  properly.
* mountall-ip-up: send the USR1 signal to the mountall process by
  looking up its PID, rather than doing "pkill -USR1 mountall".  This
  prevents a very subtle race condition where USR1 is delivered to a
  child process of mountall (such as fsck), if pkill sees the child
  just before its execve().  There is actually still a race condition
  because mountall installs its USR1 handler *after* daemonising, so
  mountall-ip-up could accidentally kill mountall.  Should report this
  to upstream.
