It was a trivial part of CR 4739385; see the evaluation for details.

Actually, I'd sort of like to see the root build mechanism itself
ripped out.

Untrue.  Nightly does this:

# Set default value for STAFFER, if needed.
if [ -z "$STAFFER" -o "$STAFFER" = "nobody" ]; then
STAFFER=`/usr/xpg4/bin/id -un`
export STAFFER
fi

I _never_ set STAFFER on any of my builds, and it works fine for me.
The only things I ever set are NIGHTLY_OPTIONS, CODEMGR_WS, PARENT_WS,
and CLONE_WS


I notice that you put that in there as part of a bunch of other fixes,

I think it would still be helpful to have the STAFFER variable commented 
out in the nightly environment files, particularly since $STAFFER is 
really only useful for teamware when nightly was being run as root.

I _never_ set STAFFER on any of my builds, and it works fine for me.
The only things I ever set are NIGHTLY_OPTIONS, CODEMGR_WS, PARENT_WS,
and CLONE_WS.

Your login name, ie $LOGNAME.


Or just leave it blank, and the nightly script will figure it out.

Don't over-configure.  Most of these things have sane defaults, by
design.

I have a workspace with fixes for this and a couple of others to reduce 
the amount of configuration of the default developer.sh and 
opensolaris.sh environment files.


BTW opensolaris-code or tools-discuss are probably the better aliases 
for this type of discussion.

Hi Moinak,

Regarding the installatin and building Solaris Nevada Open Source,
we need to perform the following basic step

Change GATE to the name of the top-level directory (e.g., testws).
Change CODEMGR_WS to the top-level path (e.g., /aux0/testws).
Change STAFFER to your login.

My top level directory is /.

What should STAFFER environment variable be set to login ?

partition


Hi,

   I have spoken to the people working on this and they will be sending the
proposal for an OpenSolaris project in a couple of days. They have most
of the implementation done for enabling OpenSolaris to boot off a Logical
Partition. This includes changes to fdisk to allow editing logical
partitions.

However this project does not provide the ability to enable OpenSolaris to
be put on multiple partitions.

Regards,
Moinak.
