1566 Tue Jan 29 20:19:27 CST 2002 -- Chad Walstrom <chad@debian.org>
1567 Added support to run script as a recovery operation. This is a
1568 glue-script; we may as well provide the ability to fix problems and
1569 continue. Changes include:
1570 - Adding a RUNDIR environment variable
1571 - A command line option "-r" for recover operations
1572 - logic tests and stampfiles to appropriate function calls
1573 Checked for existance of character file dev/boot255 before calling mknod.

1575 umount $NFSROOT/proc
1576 Recursively copies contents of /etc/fai/ directory (good if using CVS)
1577 Install $NFSROOT_PACKAGES in a second pass, to sidestep conflicts
1578 (e.g. so that ssh may replace rsh-client)

1591 file system if available, otherwise use normal ramdisk, strip comment lines
1592 when defining classes via scripts, added subroutine do_script,
1593 do_scriptss calls every script class/<classname>/S[0-9]* when class is
1594 not a file, execute all S[0-9]* scripts in a directory
1595 /fai/scripts/$class/, skip all comment lines when definig classes
1596 task_partition() call setup_harddisks only if no disk_var.sh exists
1597 defclass also sources all scripts class/S*.source
1598 add subroutines adddivert(), rmalldivert(); task_finish calls
1599 rmalldivert, task_sysinfo calls kudzu; save_log*() -maxdepth not
1600 needed for find, save_log*() now uses date and time for directory name;
1601 /tmp/fai now $LOGDIR, can be set in fai.conf; new cvs co code
