MACHINE is changed to "pc98" on FreeBSD/pc98.

2005-12-08T12:43:20Z

The MACHINE variable on pc98 is "i386". So, use "pc98" directly in PC98 case.

Introduce DEVICE_INIT, DEVICE_GET, and DEVICE_SHUTDOWN macros. As the

2001-07-02T00:18:04Z

names suggest, they perform methods on Device's. In addition, they check that the pointer passed to them is valid; if it isn't, they pretend that the action failed. This fixes some crashes due to NULL dereferences (e.g., PR 26509). Approved by: jkh (some time ago)

Enable the same path deduction as for ftp install (great for snapshot tests)

Remove the bogus check against "none" for release names (which

2000-09-22T08:13:36Z

really doesn't make any sense, what was I smoking) and allow the more canonical usage of "any" for either side of the comparison for release name or architecture (meaning you can also set CD_VERSION=any in a cdrom.inf file to cause sysinstall to always match it and likewise with the architecture, if specified). Sensibly suggested by: Makoto MATSUSHITA

Simplify the ftp directory search code a little and eliminate a warning.

Use a much saner method of locating the release directory on an FTP server.

2000-07-25T23:22:16Z

Now, if a release is specified, instead of just looking for a directory with the same name as the release, try several possible directories (each suffixed with the release name) relative to the base directory including ".", "releases/MACHINE", "snapshots/MACHINE", and each of those prefixed with "pub/FreeBSD/". This will allow us to remove the evil symlinks under pub/FreeBSD/releases/MACHINE/ to the snapshots on the ftp site.

IPv6 support.

2000-07-14T08:33:10Z

IPv6 configuration is only done by rtsol. Does someone really need manual configuration? :-) You can specify IPv6 DNS server as well. We have only one server ftp7.jp.freebsd.org that speaks IPv6 in this time. ftp7.jp speaks IPv4 as well and also listed as Japan #7. Approved by: jkh
