Ok, I have uploaded the rest of the linux distribution to nic.funet.fi.
They aren't visible yet, but I guess they'll show up tomorrow or so.
The new files are:
- fileutil.tar.Z, which contains most of the GNU fileutils. It's not
the latest release, so if you want that, you'll have to compile it
for linux. No source changes, but a lot of -DSTPCPY_MISSING etc in
the makefiles.
- hd.c. I have gotten one problem report already about hd-handling in
0.12. This is a correction to kernel/blk_drv/hd.c, and should
hopefully correct the problem. There was also a problem with a
second harddisk not working although the first one did: I think I
found the problem, and fixed it. If you cannot get linux operating
at all (but the bug wasn't that severe, I think), and are thus unable
to recompile it, mail me.
- include.tar.Z. Yes. Yet another include.tar.Z. I don't save old
versions, so I don't do cdiffs :(. I still expect patches to be
cdiffs. Bastard, ain't I?
- lib.tar.Z. The library sources.
- libc.a.Z. Compiled libc.a
- mkswap. This should have been on the root-diskette, but was
forgotten. See description in RELNOTES.
- system.tar.Z. The latest sources to the system files: mkswap, mkfs,
fsck and fdisk.
- utils.tar.Z. Contains a new tar (you can use the old one to untar
this, but this should understand about symbolic links etc), make,
uemacs and some minor programs (sed and basename I think).
The old utilbin.tar.Z file should be replaced by 'fileutil' and 'utils'.
The old include.tar.Z, libc.a library.tar.Z should be replaces by their
newer versions. The old uemacs.Z, bash.Z can also be removed from the
archives.
There is some overlapping between these files and the root-diskette (and
older versions of linux).
And over to other things:
Someone asked on comp.os.minix how to move non-tar files to a linux
partition: the INSTALL-0.11 told about tar-files, but not about things
like libc.a. The easiest ans...
