Hi,
I understood that this list is not meant for me to show off what I did with
this nas stuff.
I'll just post once the work is done so it may be of interest to some.
At the moment I'm doing a custom install cd, not sure how long it will take if
I ever outcome all difficulties but I'll bet.
Here's the first hack, I am working on the install.sh & install.sub files.
In the install process /src/distrib/miniroot/install.{sh,sub}, replaced
Available disks are: wd0 wd1 wd2.
Which one do you wish to initialize? (or 'done') [done]
by
disk : wd0
label: Veritech SSD 200
total sectors: 63078400 # total bytes: 30.1G
disk : wd1
label: SAMSUNG HD103UJ
total sectors: 1953525168 # total bytes: 931.5G
disk : wd2
label: MAXTOR STM316021
total sectors: 312581808 # total bytes: 149.1G
Available disks are: wd0 wd1 wd2.
Which one will the operating system be installed on? (or 'done') [done]
e.g.
# Force the user to think and type in a disk name by
# making 'done' the default choice.
# Jean-Francois Simon, ADD start
echo
for _n in $(get_dkdevs); do
echo "disk : $_n"
disklabel -h $_n | grep label;
disklabel -h $_n | grep total;
echo
done
# Jean-Francois Simon, ADD end
ask_which "disk" "will the operating system be installed on" \
'$(l=$(get_dkdevs); for a in $DISKS_DONE; do
l=$(rmel $a $l); done; bsort $l)' \
done
