Ok, proceeding with this approach then.

Thanks

I'm proposing a new plan to factor in the lack of libstdc++6-udeb:

1- Add devd-udeb package (by linking libstdc++ statically into the executable)

2- Start devd in src/sbin/init-kfreebsd (rather than
/lib/debian-installer-startup.d, since we need to provide USB serial
devices before init, as per #493865).

3- Add build/pkg-lists/devd file to debian-installer package (akin to
build/pkg-lists/udev).

4- (OPTIONAL) use libstdc++6-udeb if this package ever becomes available.

libstdc++6-udeb package (Re: RFC: auto-load of D-I drivers in GNU/kFreeBSD)

Oh, I wasn't aware that libstdc++ udeb had already been proposed, and
it seems to be a controversial topic...

Let's see if I can attract some attention by changing the subject.

Now could someone tell me where does the D-I team stand on this?

Reducing libstdc++ with mklibs is tricky, so only the unreduced lib can
be included into the boot image. C++ is controversial, because the
output is usually rather large.

IIRC you stared working on a reduced stdc++ library, didn't you?

Another possibility would be linking libstdc++ statically into devd.
This would increase its size in ~91 kiB.

I used it for some years with the tuxbox project. But it needs patches
to gcc.

RFC: auto-load of D-I drivers in GNU/kFreeBSD

2012-03-05 Thread Robert Millan
Hi,

Here's my proposed plan for auto-load of kFreeBSD drivers in D-I
environment.  Currently this involves USB modules only (for now,
non-USB drivers for network and storage are built into kernel):

1- Add libstdc++6-udeb package (needed by devd).

2- Add devd-udeb package.

3- Start devd in src/sbin/init-kfreebsd (rather than
/lib/debian-installer-startup.d, since we need to provide USB serial
devices before init, as per #493865).

4- Add build/pkg-lists/devd file to debian-installer package (akin to
build/pkg-lists/udev).

Comments?
