Removed the test for the pidp8i-test -v flag. It was added in 20170401 with the intent of printing the software configuration string and exiting, but it no longer works, if it ever did. check-in: 24803b41aa user: tangent tags: trunk

Calling udevadm from the "make install-system" target via a relative path since the upstream OSes keep moving it about. It's been found in /sbin, /bin and /usr/bin! check-in: 870c65f831 user: tangent tags: trunk

Dropped the ETOS matter from COPYING.md, and clarified the blanket licensing info for the rest of the DEC software. check-in: d80d302db1 user: tangent tags: trunk
2021-05-17
15:18
Changed the way "bosi prepare" handles sshd first start to use a Raspberry Pi specific mechanism that [https://groups.google.com/g/pidp-8/c/qCVLKZoJPkU/m/TLqY2IkaBAAJ | reportedly regenerates the shredded keys]. check-in: 02c35e52bf user: tangent tags: trunk
2021-04-23
19:51
Updated to the latest SIMH to fix a problem with TSS/8 booting. It seems they updated some of the device handling since the Feb 3 update we did just prior to the current stable release. check-in: f02ebe72df user: tangent tags: trunk
2021-04-05
01:18
Tweaks to the U/W FOCAL manual supplement's section on getting program text in, following with the wiki edit to the more generic "Getting Text In" doc. check-in: 19b97405ed user: tangent tags: trunk
2021-02-15
08:49
Adjustments to the build advice in the readme to track the changes made to "bosi build". check-in: 218401a205 user: tangent tags: trunk
08:10
Added missing ;; in one of the case statements in bosi check-in: 247961207f user: tangent tags: trunk
07:59
Small tweaks to the release process doc. check-in: d28caab153 user: tangent tags: trunk
07:04
Merged yet more changes for v20210214 in Leaf check-in: 73038fadf8 user: tangent tags: release, v20210214
06:57
Reworked the logic in the new "bosi build nls" code so it copies any missing images from UV, rather than blindly copy all of them only when the first one is missing. This lets you re-run the script later, relying on it to fill in the gaps before starting on the expensive parts of the build. check-in: 5ec88693ac user: tangent tags: trunk
06:53
Fixed a misplaced curly brace in previous check-in: 59e778933e user: tangent tags: trunk
06:51
Added the "nls" parameter to "bosi build" so the single-core build can share the images synced as unversioned content up to the public server rather than need to rebuild them. This also clones the images down as part of the repo for the first time, so the user has a more complete clone of the repo. check-in: 3d933f656d user: tangent tags: trunk
06:34
Moved the Python 3 library stuff back up in bosi from "build" to "init" step again after the "sudo make install" step failed, since that may need to run one of the class simh or class os8script Python programs that depend on one of these as root. Using platform binary packages rather than pip3 user packages. check-in: 3a02a9163b user: tangent tags: trunk
03:50
Moved the pip3 install command down from "bosi init" into "bosi build" so it's run as the pidp8i user, not as root. It does us no good to have the Python libraries installed for use by root! check-in: e4a27760c4 user: tangent tags: trunk
03:31
Merged still more trunk tweaks in check-in: 280c662a13 user: tangent tags: release, v20210214
03:31
Moved the 8GB image size requirement up after reflecting on the prior change. check-in: 9cac6262d6 user: tangent tags: trunk
03:17
The "bosi shrink" process roached the SD card, and I can't be bothered to figure out why. It's a minor optimization, not worth spending the time on, given that you have to go out of your way to find something smaller than 8GB and end up paying about as much for it when you do find one. I'm therefore betting that almost no one is actually trying to use a 4GB card, the only thing smaller that could possibly work, since even with the shrink, the finished image wouldn't fit on a 2GB card. check-in: d79a842547 user: tangent tags: trunk
02:42
Swapped commands in "sudo time" constructs in bosi so we use the calling shell's builtin version instead of /usr/bin/time, since at least on macOS, the builtin's output is clearer. Tweaked the prior commands to ensure that we don't count the time taken while sudo is blocking waiting for a psssword input against the time taken by the elevated command. check-in: 1ef732c32c user: tangent tags: trunk

Updated "stretch" to "buster" in tools/bosi check-in: f0461538d2 user: tangent tags: trunk
01:27
Had to reorder and update some of the steps in "bosi prepare" to make it work on the current Rasperry Pi OS version. check-in: aeac6fa347 user: tangent tags: trunk
00:58
More tweaks to the BOSI process. check-in: 356fc7e331 user: tangent tags: trunk
00:14
Merged trunk tweaks in check-in: d6d2943cec user: tangent tags: release, v20210214
00:02
Upped minimum SD card requirement from 2GB to 8GB after "bosi init" failed with an out-of-space message on the "apt upgrade" step, even after removing the biggest disk hogs we can most do without. The Foundation recommends 8GB, so we now do, too. check-in: 0136f1193f user: tangent tags: trunk

2021-02-11
06:13
Reworked the way the Python missing module detection stuff works so it generates the proper module names on Debian Buster. Dropped recommendation of easy_install (semi-obsolete) and rewrote the advice it emits to be a bit clearer. check-in: 76133aacd0 user: tangent tags: trunk
