#264 gerard@… gimli@… fixed Bootscripts: creating new /var/run/utmp doesn't work
Description

Hello

I've been testing the 1.1 bootscripts. So far so good! Except for a couple of typos "Clearning -> Clearing" :-)

One thing that puzzled me slightly was this part of cleanfs

echo -n "Creating new /var/run/utmp..." touch /var/run/utmp && chmod 644 /var/run/utmp evaluate_retval

That won't achieve anything will it? I don't see the point. Was the intention to start a fresh utmp file every reboot? If so then methinks it is missing a "rm -f /var/run/utmp".

Greg


This only updates the "modified" time of /var/run/utmp. It's better to use

echo -n "" >/ver/run/utmp

instead

#268 gerard@… gerard@… fixed few bootscript cleanups
Description
  • functions script: set umask 022, and set PATH to /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
  • every script should source the functions script. Even the simple halt and

reboot ones. This will ensure $PATH is set properly and doesn't include 'bad dirs' where other binaries could live called reboot but don't do what we expect it to do.

#269 gerard@… markh@… fixed redundant (or needs rephrasing) text in chapter5/proc.xml
Description

In chapter5/proc.xml

"It's not a problem to mount the proc file system twice or even more than that, since it's a virtual file system maintained by the kernel itself."

These days any filesystem can be mounted more than once. Maybe replace with something like:

"It's not a problem to mount the proc (or indeed any other) file system twice or even more than that as required."
