This fixes + many bugs and inconsistencies in yaboot's file loading. + - Fix OpenFirmware filesystem support to automatically convert + path separator from / to \. CDROM authors no longer need to use + kludges like image=\\install\\powermac\\vmlinux. + - Fix kernel loading on some systems. + - Allow for getting files from tftp server that does not run a + bootpd/dhcpd. + - Fix netboot when using the `n' key. + - Fix a great deal of incorrect format strings which could cause + yaboot crashes. + - Fix all filesystems to properly return error conditions, and + report those error conditions (instead of just saying `image not + found'). + - Make configuration file open error consistent with other file + open errors. + - Add `help' command to yaboot which prints out basic usage information. + - Add non-fatal warning when bootstrap partition has wrong type (pmac only). + - Minor code rearrangement. + - General cruft removal and code cleanup. + + * Makefile cleanup, make filesystems configurable. + +2001-09-25 Ethan Benson + + * Version 1.3.3 + + * Add --debug option to yabootconfig + + * Fix BSD booting support somewhat. The bsd= option's semantics + have changed, it must now be set to the BSD root partition. ybin + will now install /usr/local/lib/yaboot/ofwboot onto the bootstrap + partition when bsd= is present in /etc/yaboot.conf. The dual boot + menu will then execute "ofwboot ,/bsd" this means + the bsd kernel must be at /bsd on the BSD root partition. + +2001-09-24 Ethan Benson + + * Version 1.3.2 + + * Fix Makefile thinko where make install failed if + /etc/yaboot.conf already existed. + 2001-09-20 Ethan Benson * Version 1.3.1
