These are simple utils for debian-installer: |
2 |
||
3 |
di-utils-shell: Interactive shell. Appears in the main menu, and the |
|
4 |
postinst does all the work. Only funny trick is we need to steal control |
|
5 |
from debconf by grabbing back the original stdio file descriptors. |
|
6 |
||
7 |
pipe_progress: Copies stdin to stdout. Each second, if there has been any |
|
8 |
activity on the pipe, outputs a dot to stderr. This is used for a progress |
|
9 |
display when the boot floppy is loading the second floppy. |
|
10 |
||
11 |
mapdevfs: Given a devfs device name, returns the name that would be used on |
|
12 |
a non devfs system. Only works for some deviced, used by eg, boot loader |
|
13 |
installers. |

* Backport from trunk (Matt Kraai, closes: Ubuntu #14608): |
15 |
anna-install: Each parameter is a udeb that anna should install. If this |
16 |
command is run before anna has configured a default retriever, the udebs |
|
17 |
will be queued for the future anna run. If it's run after a default |
|
18 |
retriever is configured, the specified udebs will be installed immediately. |

|

apt-install: The parameter is a deb to queue for installation into /target. |
|
21 |
Or, if /target is already set up, the package will be installed |
|
22 |
straightaway. |
|
23 |
||
24 |
debconf-get: Prints out the value of a debconf question. |
|
25 |
||
26 |
debconf-set: Sets a debconf question to a value. |
|
27 |
||
28 |
register-module: Register a module to go in /etc/modules on the target. |
|
29 |
May be called before the target is mounted. Can optionally pass parameters |
|
30 |
that should be passed to the module on load; these are added to |
|
31 |
/etc/modules.conf. |
|
32 |
||
33 |
user-params: Output the parameters the user passed to the kernel on boot, |
|
34 |
one per line. This should include only parameters the user entered by hand, |
|
35 |
and will skip over parameters used to pre-seed debconf values. For any of |
|
36 |
the user's parameters to be recognised, the kernel command line must |
|
37 |
include "--" in it, and then all parameters after the -- are assumed to be |
|
38 |
user input. Therefore, the installer's boot loader should pass "--" at the |
|
39 |
end of its kernel command line to make this work. |
