|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Rewrite the core parts in C. We now provide librc so other programs can
|
||
|
|
query runlevels, services and state without using bash. We also provide
|
||
|
|
libeinfo so other programs can easily use our informational functions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As such, we have dropped the requirement of using bash as the init script
|
||
|
|
shell. We now use /bin/sh and have strived to make the scripts as portable
|
||
|
|
as possible. Shells that work are bash and dash. busybox works provided
|
||
|
|
you disable s-s-d. If you have WIPE_TMP set to yes in conf.d/bootmisc you
|
||
|
|
should disable find too.
|
||
|
|
zsh and ksh do not work at this time.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Networking support is currently being re-vamped also as it was heavily bash
|
||
|
|
array based. As such, a new config format is available like so
|
||
|
|
config_eth0="1.2.3.4/24 5.6.7.8/16"
|
||
|
|
or like so
|
||
|
|
config_eth0="'1.2.3.4 netmask 255.255.255.0' '5.6.7.8 netmask 255.255.0.0'"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We will still support the old bash array format provided that /bin/sh IS
|
||
|
|
a link it bash.
|
||
|
|
|

ChangeLog for baselayout-1 can be found in our SVN repo.
