Hello folks,
I started to work on unattended's XML support, since we want to use XML configuration files for unattended. The attached patch for 'unattended/linuxboot/Makfile' will include the following libs and perl modules into the linuxboot disk: o expat-1.95.8 o XML::Parser, Perl module o XML::XPath, Perl module
Since this is the first Makefile I worked on, the patch may still contain some bugs. It's still untested and unfinished, so use it on your own risk. Suggestions desired.
o How to use it To include the patch in your linuxboot image you'll need to recompile it on your own. So here we go: Create a directory for the source, checkout the actual CVS sources of unattended 4.7, download the patch and patch the Makefile and make the sources:
$ cd ~
$ mkdir develop
$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/unattended co -P unattended
$ wget http://ncsaut.net/mirror/unattended/unattended-4.7-xml-1.0.patch
$ cd unattended/linuxboot
$ patch -p0 < ../../unattended-4.7-xml-1.0.patch
$ make download && make
!! Additionally there is a known bug in the Makefile which is still not !! fixed ... so you'll need to create a symlink from /opt/perl to !! ~/develop/unattended/linuxboot/stage1/opt/perl. If someone knows how !! to fix it, please let me know.
So long...
