mfs8.0 scripts have me baffled when adding Files.
I am making a mfs boot disk to send along with a server
we are dispatching to a remote campus.
I am using the scripts from Martin Matuska's
mfsbsd-1.0-beta3
suite of programs and they produce a great bootable CD but I
need /usr/local/etc/eject.allow present to let us remotely eject
the CD when we are through repairing the file system.
Basically, I have successfully added a bit of code to
the Makefile to add the file in question to the mfs root and I
see it on the finished image, but when we get the mfsbsd shell
going, the addition I made is nowhere to be found.
I am including the Makefile at the bottom but it appears
to be doing exactly what I told it to do so there is something
about the boot process that I am missing.
Thanks for any suggestions. Basically, all the parts work but
the whole is less than the sum.

Projects like Macports have been able to do this, if this became possible for FreeBSD ports then it would be great. While I see clear advantages in TeXlive being a self-integrated distribution of software, it doesn't really fit the idea of the ports collection, which is a means to _centrally_ compile, install (or fetch from precompiled packages from a trusted source), patch, update or remove software by using system tools (the pkg_* commands) or additional utilities (like portmaster, portupgrade etc.). Having all the software bring their own distribution system, web-based obtaining and their own micro-updating mechanism (inside the software itself) looks a bit outdated. Allow me to share my inspiration: What I primarily like about the ports infrastructure is the fact that it combines several tasks done to (or with) software by a standardized interface, not distributing those tasks across the software itself. I can use pkg_add, portmaster, make install, even all of them, and I don't even have to launch a web browser to search for or manually download software. I also do not have to deal with micro-management systems which is different from port to port. All ports talk the same language, e. g. make deinstall does deinstall the port, no matter _which_ port I choose. I would really like to see TeXlive being available maybe as a precompiled package (for use with pkg_add) so it can easily be installed without actually fetching it from a non-system source. Dependencies requesting a TeX package should honor either _which_ TeX is already installed (teTeX or TeXlive) or look at a configuration setting, for example WITH_TEX= in /etc/make.conf, as I suggested. That could deliver a relatively easy integration. Not relying on 3rd party sources is a great advantage. If you use Java, you know what I'm refering to. Go to the web and download it to distfiles/, then resume the build... :-) For building TeXlive: Some people intendedly _want_ to build the stuff they use from source. Others are fine if make install fetches some binaries somewhere and installs them (for example this is what make install means for the Opera web browser in the first place). Such a binary distribution would be easy to implement, even though it might be quite huge (but that could be changed by stripping all non-FreeBSD parts from TeXlive). Still I see the problem of TeXlive's own package management system. Integrating _that_ with subports (or havving TeXlive as a metaport) doesn't look easy. As I don't need any feature of TeXlive, I'm _currently_ still using teTeX because it does everything I need. But I agree that TeXlive will be regarded _the_ TeX distribution in the future, leaving teTeX in the past... -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Some combinations of older drives and newer media give :-( unable to PERFORM OPC: Input/output error. If you are concerned about this, you could try cdrecord to see if it makes a difference. Can limiting write speed avoid these errors? That depends on both the drive and the media. It's also possible that it makes matters worse, though. It's a myth that reducing speed guarantees better results. And what ways are there to detect the fastest speed supported by both drive and media? The drive is supposed to figure it out on its own. If your drive supports it, you can use readcd to measure how well burned media can be read and do a couple of experiments with various burn speeds to see if it affects the results for your drives and the media you care about. The plot thickens. These OPC errors appeared on several older (2006) IDE DVD drives connected through various USB to IDE adapters. Connected to an actual IDE controller, no errors. The USB system not passing something through that it should, maybe. Or possibly the USB to IDE hardware, but that seems less likely. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
