This email is to inform you about the release of version '22.5.8-beta4' of
'LILO' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can be
found at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/lilo/

The changes in this release are as follows:
This version allows USB drives to be marked  "inaccessible", avoiding
errors during the Volume ID  scan. The same applies to hardware RAID
controllers,  where the underlying drives must not be confused with 
the RAID device. Software RAID1 partitions and codes  are unaffected.
This version fixes an issue where the 256  color bitmaps allowed
specification of colors above 15. 

Project description:
LILO is a Boot loader for Linux/x86 and other PC operating systems. It
is responsible for loading your Linux kernel from either a floppy or
a hard drive and passing control to it. It is capable of booting
beyond cylinder 1024 of a hard disk if the BIOS supports EDD packet
call extensions to the int 0x13 interface. LILO can also be used to
boot many other operating systems, including DOS, Windows (all
versions), OS/2, and the BSD variants. The LILO distribution includes
full source, documentation and support files. 

If you would like to cancel subscription to releases of this project,
login to freshmeat.net and choose 'home' from the personal menubar at the
top of the page. You'll be presented with a list of projects you're
subscribed to in the right column, which you may cancel by highlighting
the project in question and clicking the 'delete' button.

Sincerely,
freshmeat.net 

Hey,

that hostap problem is interesting, as Bruce found out earlier, it 
compiles fine when I start it after everything else is done.

I'll keep searching...

Hey,

poweroff is finally working.
In the Kernel config we had turned on that the system only uses the 
realmode_poweroff.

The changes will be included in the next release.

Howdy !

I declare officially a feature freeze !

 From now on, the only allowed changes to DL are updates and fixes.

Fasten your seatbelt, v1.0 is coming soon !

Hey,

I got it working!
The trick was to create the very first one (boot) and the force ( -f ) 
the creation of the links.

ln -sf ../boot $ETCDIR/etc/init.d/rcS.d/S01boot
insserv -f -d $(grep -l "### BEGIN INIT INFO" $ETCDIR/etc/init.d/*)

It's already checked in.

Initial Comment:
Add a build system which can be used by end users.

This should use compiled packages and only the wanted

packages will be installed, before the ISO is created.

I just finished uploading a new (and hopefully working) release in the
testing directory.  It should have most (all?) known bugs fixed,
including the bugs in the adsl-* scripts.  Please test and report back!

 - BS

I uploaded a new testing release this morning, but deleted it from FTP
server a couple hours later after finding a major bug.  If anyone
happened to download it, don't use it.  Sorry!

Hopefully we can get this fixed soon, and upload a good release ...

Thanks!  Here's a quick "style guide" to keep it looking good and
running efficiently:

Do NOT mix menus and selections items on the same menu.  It makes it
look like crap IMO.  (think of the old "network" submenu - yuck!)

Do NOT nest menus more than two deep.  (no deeper than they are now)
This makes it easy to navigate through everything easily.  Especially
nice for us developers who like to turn on all options for releases to
be uploaded to the FTP server.

Try to group items in categories so that lists of items are not too
long, nor or are they too short.  Again, easier for us developers to 
hop through all the items before compiling a release to be uploaded.

Is this a good break point for me to compile a release tonight 
and upload it tomorrow?

 - BS

Hey,

I just added memtest86 to DL.
It doesn't seem to work under VMWare, so I would appreciate if you guys 
could try it on your (real) computers.

Since the link rc3.d/S99grsecurity is created manual,

I guess the file dates are not the same, but I'm too lazy to check it 
(just had dinner). ;-)

BTW there's still a pb if you update sources from a mirror (i've 
dowloaded from Lille) and then from the main site to be very up to date 
... it will (re)download same packages :-(

Maybe pcmcia-cs should be compiled, then hostap, then pcmcia-cs AGAIN?
(just guessing, FWIW :)

No problem.  I'll let you fix it.  Keep in mind what I've done so far,
and feel free to undo anything I shouldn't have done.  :-)

I don't think as, in case you use pcmcia-cs, during build of hostap 
driver, it adds some files in the source tree and modifies the pcmcia-cs 
makefile to make this one compile the cs version of the driver; so it 
MUST be compiled prior to pcmcia-cs.

I'll had to look at the build / install scripts as i remember (i quickly 
look at 0.0.4 sources 2 month ago) they do lots of changes in their 
makefile so things are not as trivial as updating source package :-(

I'll have some time to spend on DL and wifi in the very next days so if 
you don't intend to release 1.0 tomorrow ... ;-)

OK, I tried the latest version of hostap, and it aborted too.

However, I moved it to compile AFTER pcmcia-cs (instead of before) and
the compile finished.  Hope that's OK (changes are uploaded).
