<para>3.0-pre3 - May 12th, 2001</para>

<itemizedlist>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Added numerous FHS compliance notes. These
|
|
instructions can be followed if one wishes to build a fully
|
|
FHS-compliant system.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 4: Updated the directory list to be more

FHS compliant. Mainly this meant adding the opt directories and
|
|
removing /usr/tmp and /usr/local/tmp</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 5: We now copy the kernel include directories
|
|
instead of linking to them. This is theoretically safer if we plan on
|
|
upgrading the kernel.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Chapter 5+6: Removed fileutils-patch. After upgrading

|
<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Changed bin86's installation from
|
|
"make PREFIX=/usr install" to "make INSTALL_OPTS="-m 755"
|
|
PREFIX=/usr install". This will prevent install from invoking strip -s
|
|
on the files. This fails because a couple of the installed files are
|
|
shell scripts rather than programs, so they can't be stripped.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Removed the ld.so section since we

only used the man pages and replaced it with a patch to man-pages.</para></listitem>

make install.</para></listitem>

|
file" into "ln -sf file" (in glibc, bzip2 and gzip
|
|
installations).</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Added a sed to fix a problem during
|
|
glibc-installation. pt_chown can not be installed setuid root,
|
|
because "root" is not known by glibc yet (kind of hen and
|
|
egg-problem).</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Changed consoledata/tools to kbd, which
|
|
is more actively developed, and less of a pain to install.</para></listitem>

<itemizedlist>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Converted the SGML source to XML.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 4: Tell the user to use cfdisk rather than
|
|
fdisk. The fdisk man page recommends cfdisk over fdisk because
|
|
it's more stable.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 4: Changed the wording to make it more general
|
|
as ext2 no longer is the only used file system. Reiser for example is
|
|
often used too now.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 5: Added static mawk, texinfo and partially
|
|
gettext to faciliate the move of Glibc from Chapter 5
|
|
to Chapter 6.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 5: Added Makedev to chapter 5. We don't create
|
|
the device files here, only copy the MAKEDEV script and make a temp
|
|
copy which will be used to create device files. This second file
|
|
(MAKEDEV-temp) doesn't contain user names and group names but only user
|
|
id's and group id's. We need a few device files to get Glibc installed,
|
|
but before GLibc is installed user and group names are not recognized yet;
|
|
only the numeric id's. This requires a slightly modified MAKEDEV script
|
|
which will be generated by patching the original one. This patching is done
|
|
here in chapter 5. Also, fixed the explanations on both
|
|
makedev installations.</para></listitem>
|

<listitem><para>Chapter 5: Recommended to install all the software
|
|
while logged in (or su'ed to) user root.</para></listitem>

gcc-2.95.2.1</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Chapter 5+6: Moved Glibc from chapter 5 to
|
|
chapter 6</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Changed libexecdir=/usr/bin in fileutils
|
|
to libexecdir=/bin</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Updated Glibc installation instructions.
|
|
'configparms' file creation has been deleted. No need to pick a compiler
|
|
(either distro's native or the /usr/local/gcc2952/bin/gcc one);
|
|
we're in chroot now so we'll use the one we have</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Only copy the man pages from the
|
|
ld.so package. We don't need the ldconfig and ldd programs anymore;
|
|
Glibc-2.2.1 comes with good working versions.</para></listitem>
|

<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Added the creation of the lex symlink
|
|
to the flex installation.</para></listitem>

|
during bison's installation. "$@" allows usage of quoted arguments

with blanks. </para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Fixed the man page installation during
|
|
console-tools' installation.</para></listitem>
|
|

<listitem><para>Chapter 6: When entering chroot the $TERM variable
|
|
inside chroot is set properly. This is accomplished by: chroot ...
|
|
-i HOME=/root TERM=$TERM...</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 6: Merged the different sulogin lines from
|
|
the inittab file into one line.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 7: Fixed the delays in the killproc function
|
|
in the functions script. Now after kill, first check PIDs, then
|
|
sleep 2 if needed. More details can be read in the comments
|
|
in the script itself.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Chapter 7: Added the explanation how the runlevels

|
and boot process works when using the LFS scripts.</para></listitem>
