I have put together a release snapshot of elkscmd as it has been a while since
I last released anything, and alot has gone in. This release may be a bit
untidy as CVS is currently down which makes it harder to keep track of what is
going on.
The package is available from the following URLs

I've got a new fdisk just about ready to go into elkscmd, which should fix
a number of bugs people ha
I have updated the sys_utils directory in the elkscmd program so that
the copyright statements are all clear and each program has a man page.
If anyone has contributed code to this directory and is not credited, please
let me know and I will put you into the files headers.

found it.. thanks to a local Guru.
when doing mkfs.minix I wasn't specify an inode count, it was guess
according to the size of the disk. This droped from 120 inodes (at 360K) to
42 (at 128K).
adding the '-i 180' parameter solved the problem.

well, I found the problem from init and my /etc/inittab but there is a much easier
way:
$ ls -l .
Al,
indeed there was a problem at least in the scanFile function, which I think
I corrected. You find the modified version of that function here.
As I wrote before, there is work to be done in init about the information in
the utmp file. it is not urgent to me, so I didn't look at it with too m
I have released a snapshot of the ELKS user space package elkscmd. This
is the last snapshot before the next version of the kernel.

Hi all;
I hav ecompilation pb with elkscmd...these are the traces :
bcc -3 -0 -O -ansi -s init.c utent.o -o init -H 2000
...
ld86: warning: _getutid redefined in file /usr/bcc/lib/bcc/i86/libc.a(utent.o);
using definition in utent.o
undefined symbol: _setsid
the symbole setsid in init.c is not
eading the instructions again? I login into
the CVS server, checkout / update the sources for elks and elkscmd, then you
say I need to build my libc -part of the 8086 development package- against
the correct ELKS kernel. "what do you mean by that? that is not an answer!"

fchown was commented out because there was a kernel bug in the code
for fchow
login.c: fchown is not defined in my environment, the two lines around
#46 were commented out in the previous version. I commented them out
again, but I believe there is an other solution?

I have put a patched version of this file in elkscmd. Once it is merged
into dev86, I will remove it.

Hi all,
I'm newbie with elks since few weeks.
When I compile elkscmd to make the root FS, I have errors on fdisk.c compiling.
It does'nt find linuxmt/ directory and all .h included. What's the matter ?
There is a variable linux tested by #ifdef in order to choose between 2 types

I try to compile the elks commands from the elkscmd-19991101.tar.gz archive.

Hi Al,
I think this will be interesting for most people on the list...
well, I've written this version of init.c and modified date.c.
*** init.c does a decent job, according to me, allowing the elks
administrator to write a /etc/inittab file, but it sometimes (quite
regularly) corrupts utmp. I f

I have uploaded the latest snapshot of the elksmcd package to:-

This is a minor update with two small bugfixes, and a change to the way the
root filesystem template is handled.
