New Revision: 219181
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/219181
Log:
Add additional release makefile for bsdinstall-based media, along with
support files. This does not change the default behavior of anything.
To make bsdinstall-based media, pre-build world and GENERIC, then run
the release target in Makefile.bsdinstall.
Are you planning on keeping the current 'make release' behavior of building a
full chroot and doing a clean build in the chroot to build a release? That
is, is 'Makefile.bsdinstall' just a temporary shortcut for building test
releases or is that the final replacement for 'release/Makefile'?
It was intended (modulo memstick building, docs, and some miscellaneous
cleanup) to be the final replacement for release/Makefile. In my
experience, the automatic fetching, clean build, and chroot was a major
impediment to easily making installation media for users to test
patches. I figured that if people (e.g. re@) really want a totally clean
tree, checking one out by hand and building from there didn't seem like
an enormous obstacle.
If you think it's a really important feature, I'm happy to add it back,
however.
