TODO
- Get eject onto miBoot-enabled boot disk so manual ejection of floppies is unnecessary
- Fix quik-install (currently it doesn't do the right thing in terms of setting the OF variables needed to boot using quik)
- Proposed solution for quik-install
- If /proc/device-tree can be included in the miBoot floppies (the hd-media and cd installs already include this support) I think I have the beginnings of a solution: If /proc/dev-tree/alias/screen exists
- nvsetenv output-device screen
- else
- Search /sys for a device of type 'display' If there's more than one, ask which to use Set output-device to the OF firmware name (this information is supplied in same directory as the 'display' device)
- nvsetenv output-device kbd
- not sure, will have to check if there is a way to do this
- If /proc/device-tree can be included in the miBoot floppies (the hd-media and cd installs already include this support) I think I have the beginnings of a solution: If /proc/dev-tree/alias/screen exists
- Create patch for update of manual
Q: ? Is BootX distributable. If so, should it be included on Etch distribution media? A: Not distributable with debian
