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. 2007-04-05 16:48:42 +05:30			`# set CLOCK to "local". Note that if you dual boot with Windows, then`

Move /etc/conf.d/rc to /etc/rc.conf. Lowercase all configurable variables, non configurations remain uppercase. Replace rc_env_bool with rc_yesno. Split localmount info procfs (Linux) and dumpon, savecore (BSD) 2007-11-23 17:34:11 +05:30			`clock="UTC"`

Allow syncing of hwlock for BSD and make our config files look fairly similar. 2007-07-04 23:41:01 +05:30			`# If you want to set the Hardware Clock to the current System Time`

add option to disable setting the system clock on boot for linux systems This commit adds the clock_hctosys option which is used to skip setting the system clock on boot and can be used with a modern linux kernel which has the CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS option set to y. I would like to thank Dimitris Mandalidis for the report and for the patch to baselayout-1 on which my changes to openrc are based.
