IBM would like us to provide mainframe users with a sample punchcard
reader script along with the other boot files on s390x.
I'd just like to say that again: punch cards.

The s390 can boot El Torito CD or DVD images iff they are attached
by zFCP, used as the IPL device, and contain a specially formatted
boot image on the disc. IBM provided the tool to combobulate the
boot image together and a description of the desired execution
path.
When you boot on s390, the linuxrc.s390 will look to see if you
IPL'ed from a CD or DVD. If you did, it will ask if you also
want to install from that device. If you answer yes (y, Y, or
any case spelling of 'yes'), the script will bring the IPL device
online so the kernel assigns it a device name. Then it skips over
the network configuration and starts you in to loader. If you
tell it no or did not IPL from a CD or DVD, it'll launch the
missiles--wait, no, I mean you get the normal network installation
questions before loader starts.
I have no way to test this as it requires the following changes:
(1) Rel-eng needs to build s390x media with -no-emul-boot and
specify the new cdboot.img file on that platform. I have
already contacted rel-eng about making this change.
(2) I don't have a CD-ROM drive in my mainframe. IBM does and
testing is all falling on them. IBM knows this...maybe.
I explain all of this like anyone else on the team will ever get a
chance to experience it.
So there you have it. A letter opener.

created

ssh/telnet bits are their own function that get called only for s390/s390x
right now, but leaves open the option of adding on other platforms in the
future

- larger initrd to be able to copy some debugging tools in, should be
reduced later
- xauth requires libICE, libSM and libXt now ;-(

fairly large merge, but all fairly obvious stuff. will test in a tree tomorrow
|

* firewall update
* iSeries PReP size
* ppc mediacheck
* tzdata stuff
* cmdline mode
* pkg defaults screen

little things across the board
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
* ppc boot constraints
* md5 endianness
* don't prompt to save tracebacks to a floppy without a floppy
* autopart for kickstart

and cleanups in here too

msw's ctrl-alt-del thing and some arch fixups

after-taroon-merge
this one adds s390 fixes, basic i/p series platform support, support for
multiple kernels and one second stage, cmdline kickstart mode (nice for s390),
some warning cleanups.

will be tagged after-taroon-merge after. taroon at this point is tagged
taroon-merge-point for where to base merges from in the future

WOOHOO! s/390 is now pretty much merged to HEAD except for the bits
of mail I'm about to send out
