These scripts are not supported, and they have several major design
issues such as not being able to stop, start or allow a dependency on a
single interface.
Some variable references were written as $(foo), but the majority were
written as ${foo}. This commit changes all of the variable references
to using braces.
The tree contained many operating system specific Makefiles which were
being included in other Makefiles. This commit removes those and adds
the code to the makefiles which included them using make's conditional
processing.

This simply assigns static addresses and an optional default route.
It's possible to add external commands as well, so to create a bonded interface.
Hopefully we can add a few examples to satisfy most of the old net.lo, which
is no longer installed into boot by default.
Split halt.sh into halt, killprocs, romount and savecache services.
The reboot runlevel is removed but mapped to shutdown.
The halt script should be moved to the sysvinit package.
mounting various bits in /dev and /sys.
init.sh JUST mounts /lib/rc/init.d (and /proc for Linux systems)
To make development of this easier we now return an empty RC_STRINGLIST
instead of a NULL for empty things.
If you don't have a udev init script installed, don't reboot your box OR
roll back to an older OpenRC version.
Lowercase all configurable variables, non configurations remain uppercase.
Replace rc_env_bool with rc_yesno.
Split localmount info procfs (Linux) and dumpon, savecore (BSD)
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.
