This should make failed "firmware" upgrades (nearly) impossible. * Changed the old serial port speed of 9600 to a more contemporary 38400. * Change priority from optional to extra to match the override file. * mkinitrd-cd: Use the word matching option to grep when trying to figure out if a kernel module should be copied or not. This fixed the useless copying of some otherwise useless modules (e.g. "st"). * gibraltar-bootsupport: Also deal with interface names ath* in setup.d/01set-ip-addresses (these are used by the madwifi driver). * gibraltar-bootsupport: Updated var-defaults.tar.gz again. * mkinitrd-cd: Rise the RAM disk size in syslinux.cfg from 4096 to 4608 kB to provide more space for the (now larger) initrd images. * mkinitrd-cd: Add more aliases to syslinux.cfg for various appliances and the different stages of failed update attempts. * gibraltar-bootsupport: Depend on iputils-arping, which is needed for checking for IP address conflicts upon first bootup. * gibraltar-bootsupport: Depend on xdelta, which is needed for the patching scripts. * Implement beepconsole with the beep utility even if we are not running on a Linux console (but e.g. over serial). This is necessary for appliances with serial console to beep during bootup. * gibraltar-bootsupport: Add new utilities status-led and lan-bypass to control hardware features of the iBASE FWA7204 appliance. Also include a binary for checking if it is running on an iBASE appliance: check-ibase. * gibraltar-bootsupport: Add a new setup.d script for configuring kernel modules for the iBASE appliance: modules-ibase. * gibraltar-bootsupport: Use /etc/iftab now for renaming interfaces instead of /etc/network/interfaces. This avoids problems with interface order, e.g. when using bridge interfaces. * mkinitrd-cd: Don't include the discover binary in the "min" initrd images (intended for 1.44 MB floppies) anymore. It just doesn't fit with newer kernels. * mkinitrd-cd: Depend on discover1-data | discover-data now, since the package has been renamed for unstable. Closes: #339859: gibraltar-bootcd: FTBFS: C compiler cannot create executables / * mkinitrd-cd: Fix the regular expression for extracting the module name from the file name (and consequently to check if it needs to be copied to the initrd image). Thanks to Andy Chittenden from BlueArc for finding that issue. * mkinitrd-cd: Add the isofs module to IDE_CD_MODS and SCSI_CD_MODS in probe-devs.sh and cdboot_required_modules in mkinitrd-cd.conf. This makes booting from CD work when the iso9660 filesystem has been compiled as a module (like for the default Debian kernels) instead of statically. Again thanks to Andy Chittenden from BlueArc for pointing that out. * mkinitrd-cd: Fix the shell globbing to be able to deal with an empty list of copied modules (e.g. when the kernel has been statically linked with all required drivers). Thanks to Berk Akinci from Sun for spotting this problem and suggesting the elegant fix of using "shopt -s nullglob". * gibraltar-bootcd: Fixed saving the configuration data to the same image that was used for booting the system. The problem was that, when the media was already mounted, it did not get remounted even when it was originally mounted with option "ro". Now, when saving to an already mounted partition, it is remounted rw before and again ro after saving the configuration so that this special case will work.
