1191 Tue Jan 29 20:19:27 CST 2002 -- Chad Walstrom <chad@debian.org>
1192 Added support to run script as a recovery operation. This is a
1193 glue-script; we may as well provide the ability to fix problems and
1194 continue. Changes include:
1195 - Adding a RUNDIR environment variable
1196 - A command line option "-r" for recover operations
1197 - logic tests and stampfiles to appropriate function calls
1198 Checked for existance of character file dev/boot255 before calling mknod.
1199 Checked for existance of $NFSROOT/proc/modules file before calling
1200 umount $NFSROOT/proc
1201 Recursively copies contents of /etc/fai/ directory (good if using CVS)
1202 Install $NFSROOT_PACKAGES in a second pass, to sidestep conflicts
1203 (e.g. so that ssh may replace rsh-client)
1204 Don't set up $LOGUSER's home directory if that variable is undefined
1205 add variable FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS
1206 * conf/fai_modules_off: more modules turned off
1207 * call openvt with full shell path (closes: #134641)

1215 instead of fstab (for solaris support), /fai is now $FAI, mount shm
1216 file system if available, otherwise use normal ramdisk, strip comment lines
1217 when defining classes via scripts, added subroutine do_script,
1218 do_scriptss calls every script class/<classname>/S[0-9]* when class is
1219 not a file, execute all S[0-9]* scripts in a directory
1220 /fai/scripts/$class/, skip all comment lines when definig classes
1221 task_partition() call setup_harddisks only if no disk_var.sh exists
1222 defclass also sources all scripts class/S*.source
1223 add subroutines adddivert(), rmalldivert(); task_finish calls
1224 rmalldivert, task_sysinfo calls kudzu; save_log*() -maxdepth not
1225 needed for find, save_log*() now uses date and time for directory name;
1226 /tmp/fai now $LOGDIR, can be set in fai.conf; new cvs co code
1227 * templates/scripts: change NET and NETWORK examples; now called S10,
1228 S40 and located in directory /fai/scripts/NETWORK/
1229 BASE and DEFAULT moved to DEFAULT/S20 and DEFAULT/S01
1230 * setup_harddisk: raid support for /devc/rd, /dev/ida and cciss driver

1238 directories, use File::Find, now sets envionment variables $target and
1239 $FAI_ROOT, bug fix in -d option, new options -L and -P
1240 * KERNELVERSION not needed in fai.conf, now automaticly determined in
1241 make-fai-* scripts
1242 * FAI_FILES removed
1243 * Files added: THANKS, preinst, prtnetgr, pxelinux.cfg
