Hi everyone.
Bug 5787 microroot name shouldn't be ISA specific
needs to be fixed ASAP. I will be upping the priority accordingly and
re-assigning it to Sue since the AI changes are tricky.
It touches different parts of the slim_source gate: libict, installadm
and DC. To expedite getting this bug fixed, I would like Joe, the
expert of libict; and Karen, the DC lead, to reply to this email to
state in detail what/where the changes are, so that Sue can do the
needful. Hopefully the changes for ICT and DC are just
search-and-replace type changes. If not, please elaborate. The intent
is that this parallelism will help get the bug changes done quicker.
Once Sue has a gate ready (should be tomorrow sometime), Joe, Karen, Sue
and myself will help test it out. Again, parallelism should save time.
Once proven, the webrev will go out as usual. The intent is to push by
the end of the week.
We will use the name "boot_archive", since that is consistent with
current installed systems.
I will be filing a bug (to be fixed later) to change "bootroot" to
"boot_archive" in DC, so we are consistent on all 3 fronts: AI images,
installed images and DC.
For identification of the ISO as a SPARC or X86 type, one will need to
check the /platform directory. i86pc won't exist on SPARC, and
sun4[u/v] won't exist on x86.
Thanks everyone for your help.
Thanks,
Jack
