2006-04-23altboot: Matthias Hentges1
- Removed multiple die() functions - Altboot no longer activates an off-flash altboot-menu when not booting from flash - Added a debug_echo function which is disabled in non-rc and non-snapshot builds - RC's and snapshots now spawn a debug shell on tty4 right after the kernel is booted - die() messages are now colored red/white, debug is purple(?)/white - Fixed start_networking() on collie and made it a little bit more verbose

2006-04-11altboot: Fix tar.gz installer to work w/o inserted cf or sd cards, fix ↵Matthias Hentges1
mount_cf to work with udev
2006-04-04altboot: - Allow a basic reconfiguration of non-flash based installations:Matthias Hentges1
- Move /home from flash into the image - Remove SD / CF / /home ipkg dests - Move ipkg package data from RAM into the image - All of the above is _optional_ - Be a little bit less verbose. - Yet _again_ change the way we detect wheter we are called by the kernel or the user...this is driving me nuts.
2006-03-30altboot: Be more verbose about when all messages are coming from the new rootfsMatthias Hentges1
2006-03-29altboot: Altboot now remembers the last loop-image (or realfs),too, which ↵Matthias Hentges1
allowsa true automatic booting of the last user-setting
2006-03-01altboot: Last changes before the stable relaseMatthias Hentges1
2006-02-24altboot: update to 0.0.5-rc5. This version is known to work with kernel 2.4 ↵Matthias Hentges1
an 2.6 (all plugins) on Akita
2006-02-23altboot: More kernel 2.4 fixesMatthias Hentges1

2006-02-08altboot: Update to latest development versionMatthias Hentges1
2006-02-05altboot: Fixed a type. I wonder how that got in there...Matthias Hentges1
2006-02-05altboot:Matthias Hentges1
- New funcitions: init_rootfs, mount_sd, mount_cf and mount_home for smaller code and easier debugging / bugfixing. These functions can be used by all plugins. - Do not try to mount /sys, /proc, /media/cf and /media/home when they are already mounted (mainly for testing purposes) - Added plugin: install-tgz This plugin allows installation of an OE generated .tar.gz rootfs onto CF or SD as a real filesystem or into a loopfile of user-defined size. Still needs some work but is usable.
2006-01-31altboot: Matthias Hentges1
- More kernel 2.6 changes - Booting off SD seems to work as expected now - Turn off printk before showing the menu, kernel messages make a mess of it - Load keympas before showing the menu. init=/bin/sh is useless with a b0rked keymapping.
2006-01-24altboot: Matthias Hentges1
- Reworked moving old mountpoints into the new rootfs - Optimized pivot_root'ing
2006-01-23altboot:Matthias Hentges1
- Fixed a bug where the /media/ROM mountpoint wasn't moved into the new rootfs - Added support for booting off USB storage devices
2006-01-21altboot:Matthias Hentges1
- 40-bootNFS: Copy resolv.conf from flash into pivot_root to allow working DNS - Allowing to use altboot as init inside a pivot_root. Which means as soon as th e new root is booted, you are presented with altboots menu again. But this ti me changing behaviour of the pivot_root booting sequence - Improved detected if altboot is run by user (to switch runlevels manually) or kernel. - Do not run scripts in /etc/altboot.rc if altboot is not enabled - Add Advanced/Boot original INIT. Note: "Normal Boot" might be different than the real /sbin/init on some machines.
2006-01-18altboot:Matthias Hentges1
- Fixed a bug where altboot wouldn't prompt for the menu but do init 5 instead - Cosmetic changes (Thanks to andrewy@#openzaurus) - Fixed a bug where pressing enter to start altboot would launch the default option. (Thanks to prh@#openzaurus) - Disabled "Copy RootFS" menu item as this part is not finished, yet.
2005-08-14altboot: Fix fsck on loop-images, unb0rking SD, CF and NFS booting of ↵Matthias Hentges1
