- put some common code in a function handle_remount();

- add better checks on non-existing directories to prevent error messages at run time; - introduce a function log() to help debugging diskless booting when things don't work; - modify the parsing of diskless_remount so you can add mount_nfs options after the pathname. You could use 'remount' to do something similar, but this way is more convenient because you don't have to hardwire the server name in the command. - document the above. I have been running the above in a diskless lab since february on RELENG_6. MFC after: 1 week

- Document /conf/diskless_remount in the list of special files.

- Note that diskless_remount files may use ".." to support mounts above the root path. - Copy dot files when populating directories from /conf. [1] PR: misc/102724 [1] Submitted by: Attila Nagy [1]

Switch from pax to tar for extracting cpio archives. pax requires a

writable /tmp (or TMPDIR) and thus is unsuitable for this job. Tested by: Joerg Pulz PR: conf/88293

The -x option of pax is for creation of archives, not

2005-10-31T21:07:14Z

extraction. This will allow cpio archive support to work, at least in situations where /tmp is writable. Because pax requires a writable /tmp it is unsuitable for this task, but replacing it will come in a later commit. Submitted by: Joerg Pulz PR: conf/88293

Add two new template sources, /conf/bcast/${ipbca} and /conf/ip/${ip}.

These allow large installations to keep their /conf directory down to a managable number of entries. Clean up the handling of dhcp_cookie.
