21     Tue Jan 29 20:19:27 CST 2002 -- Chad Walstrom <chad@debian.org>
22     Added support to run script as a recovery operation. This is a
23     glue-script; we may as well provide the ability to fix problems and
24     continue. Changes include:
25     - Adding a RUNDIR environment variable
26     - A command line option "-r" for recover operations
27     - logic tests and stampfiles to appropriate function calls

30     umount $NFSROOT/proc

47 lange 1019 when defining classes via scripts, added subroutine do_script,
48     do_scriptss calls every script class/<classname>/S[0-9]* when class is
49     not a file, execute all S[0-9]* scripts in a directory
