11WARNING: The simpleinit and some other programs in this package are
12 *NOT* System V compliant. These utilities are meant to be
13 used by people who build their own systems. If you are not
6dbe3af9
KZ
14 a wizard, do *NOT* blindly install these utilities: they could
15 prevent you from logging into your system. Have a boot floppy
fd6b7a7f
KZ
16 ready, especially if you don't know what you are doing. It's a
17 great way to learn though ;-)

19To install from source:
20
211) Get source distribution (see the .lsm file for locations)
fd6b7a7f
KZ
222) Untar util-linux-2.7.tar.gz in /usr/src
233) cd util-linux-2.7
726f69e2
KZ
244) Edit MCONFIG
255) make
6dbe3af9
KZ
266) make install
277) If you want to use simpleinit and agetty, then make softlinks from
28 /sbin/init to simpleinit and from /sbin/getty to agetty, but make sure
29 that your /etc/inittab is set up right (this is *NOT* the System V
30 compatible init!), or you will be hosed. If you are using the SysV
31 init and/or some other getty, they you can keep using those.

33HIGLIGHTS for version 2.7:
34
351) util-linux now _requires_ ncurses. Several programs are completely
36 converted to use terminfo (instead of termcap).
37
382) Removed progams:
39 - clock: Dropped entierly. Use hwclock (included).
40 - sync: is in gnu fileutils.
41 - setserial: Is being maintained by Ted Ts'o, he recommends
42 setserial-2.12 (2.13 is bad luck)
43 - clear: Included in ncurses
44 - hostname, domainname, dnsdomainname: It's in net-utils.
45
463) Bugfixes, additions:
47 - cfdisk: A much improved version. All known bugs have been fixed.
48 - sfdisk: A command line fdisk type utility, formerly called fdisk-3.04.
49 - SECURITY: All known holes in login, chfn, chsh and others have been
50 plugged. UPGRADE NOW if you haven't already fixed them yourself.
51 - Should work with libc 4, 5 and 6 (gnulibc), on m68k, intel, alpha
52 and sparc.
53
544) Problems.:
55 - The rpcgen that comes in NetKit-B-0.09 is broken. At least as
56 packaged with RedHat 4.2 (NetKit-B-0.09-6). There are several
57 ways to deal with this:
58 - Don't run rpcgen, the needed pre-generated sources are included
59 (nfsmount_xdr.c). You must hack mount/Makefile to do this.
60 - Edit the source emited by rpcgen so it can compile. This is very
61 simple if you know C.
62 - Disable the NFS parts of mount. You have to edit mount/Makefile
63 to do this.
64 - Use some other rpcgen
65
66util-linux 2.6.1
67
68This release was never made public
69
70See notes for 2.6 for installation instructions.
71
72This is a incremental release containing some fixes. A new release
73will be made later fixing the outstanding bugs.
74- Things compiles and works better with recent releases of kernel,
75 ncurses, and so forth: fdisk, more
76- Some fixes to make things compile out of the box on alphas.
77- There has been reported a problem with login and /etc/usertty. It
78 should be fixed. If you still have problems get a recent MAKEDEV and
79 use it to make new tty devices. They were renumbered sometime during
80 the 1.3 phase of the kernel.
81- ipcs now displays the key of the structures.
82- A (harmless?) overflow bug was fixed in login.
83
84Outstanding bugs:
85- login/getty has a denial of service problem.
86- Several places needs a bit more polish.
87- There are a _lot_ of nonfatal warnings when compiling mount. This will
88 not necesarily be fixed.

91util-linux 2.6
92
93HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.6:
94
950) The first release with me at the helm. PLEASE SEND PATCHES AND
96 UPDATES TO: util-linux@math.uio.no.
97
981) Removed programs:
99 - md5sum: available in GNU textutils.
100 - syslogd: Sysklogd is now prefered. It is available at
101 tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/sources/sbin
102 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Daemons
103
1042) Bugfixes, additions:
105 - SECURITY: All known holes in mount have been fixed. UPGRADE NOW
106 if you haven't already!
107 - Portability enhancments to the minix filesystem utils (m68k and
108 Arm patches).
109 - passwd/chsh/chfn will not mess up the passwd file on a NIS machine
110 - others too numerous to enumerate.
111
1123) New programs:
113 - vigr (it's like vipw)
114 - Introducing hwclock. A complete rewrite of the latest available
115 clock source. It supports intel/CMOS, /dev/rtc and linux/m68k
116 system clock interfaces. Clock supports the same things but is now
117 obsolete and will not be present in the next release. Start using
118 hwclock now. Please.

121util-linux 2.5
726f69e2
KZ
122
123HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.5:
1240) Nicolai Langfeldt is taking over maintenance of util-linux, with the
125 help of a few others (Michael K. Johnson, Andries Brouwer, and Rik
126 Faith).
127
128 PLEASE SEND PATCHES AND UPDATES TO: util-linux@math.uio.no
129
1301) The following packages have been removed. Please use the up-to-date,
131 canonical versions of these packages from the listed places:
132
133 timezone support (/usr/lib/zoneinfo, libz.a, zic, zdump):
134 elsie.nci.nih.gov:/pub/tzcode95d.tar.gz
135 elsie.nci.nih.gov:/pub/tzdata95h.tar.gz
136 MAKEDEV-C:
137 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Admin/MAKEDEV-C-1.5.tar.gz
138 MAKEDEV:
139 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Admin/MAKEDEV-2.2.tar.gz
140 md5sum:
141 prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/textutils-1.3.tar.gz
142 [The GNU version is now compatible with the Plumb/Lankester
143 version.]
144 ksymoops:
145 Now bundled with the kernel in linux/scripts.
146
1472) update_state has been removed
1483) fdisk now supports NetBSD disklabels courtesy of Bernhard Fastenrath
149 <fasten@athene.informatik.uni-bonn.de> (and > 8GB disks, courtesy of
150 Andries Brouwer)
1514) mount improved -- many patches from Andries Brouwer for greatly improved
152 error reporting
1535) ddate, chkdupexe, and other programs have been improved and bug fixed
1546) util-linux is now a source-only distribution
1557) mcookie generates better random numbers and will use /dev/random or
156 /dev/audio if available
1578) chfn, chsh, passwd, and vipw have been updated with security patches
158 from Zefram <A.Main@dcs.warwick.ac.uk>. Now, they all use the same
159 locking, and several security holes have been patched. Further, chsh
160 and chfn can be configured at compile time to require a password before
161 updates and chsh can be configured to only use shells from /etc/shells.
162
163
164HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.4 (2.3 was never released):
1650) Michael K. Johnson <johnsonm@nigel.vnet.net> is the interim maintainer
166 while Rik Faith is working on PhD work.
1671) login now makes the login tty mode 600 and places it in group "tty"
1682) wall, and write will not write dangerous escape sequences
1693) wall and write can be run setgid "tty". If util-linux is compiled for
170 this option, "mesg y" will only set group write instead of group/other
171 write.
1724) fdisk and cfdisk have been patched with the latest llseek.c. Although I
173 had a lot of bug reports about fdisk from util-linux-2.2, I was unable
174 to reproduce any of the problems. Some of the problems appeared to be
175 releated to a failure to reboot the machine after changing the partition
176 table, and some may have been due to a specific kernel revision problem.
177 However, this doesn't seem to account for all of the bug reports -- if
178 this version gives you problem, please send as complete a bug report as
179 possible.
1805) chkdupexe from Nicolai Langfeldt (janl@ifi.uio.no)
1816) ctrlaltdel now installs into /sbin instead of /usr/sbin
1827) mkfs replacement from Ron Sommeling (sommel@sci.kun.nl)
1838) lpcntl removed. Use tunelp instead.
1849) ksymoops from Greg McGary <gkm@magilla.cichlid.com>
18510) mkfs.minix now clears the first 512 bytes of the file system so that
186 Minix disks won't be confused with MSDOS disks (Daniel Quinlan
187 (quinlan@yggdrasil.com))
18811) mkswap should now work on an Alpha running Linux
18912) frag removed. See
190 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Filesystems/defrag-0.6.tar.gz for the
191 latest version.
19213) mount patches from Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl and Dan Quinlan
193 (quinlan@yggdrasil.com).
19414) MAKEDEV and MAKEDEV-C updated to the latest versions.
19515) Paths updated for FSSTND 1.2. This means that you may need to make
196 some links. The links you need to make we system dependent. The
197 ultimate goal is to rename /var/adm to /var/log and have a symbolic
198 link from /var/adm to /var/log during the transition period. If you
199 are running an ELF system, you probably won't have to do anything. The
200 bottom line is that the following files must exist or be pointers to
201 the old version (used internally by the a.out libraries):
202
203 New Old
204
205 /var/log/wtmp /var/adm/wtmp
206 /var/log/lastlog /var/adm/lastlog
207 /var/run/utmp /var/adm/utmp
6dbe3af9
KZ
208
209HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.2:
2101) This is primarily a quick bug-fix release for version 2.1
2112) mkfs wrapper added back in, since e2fsprogs only supplies an fsck wrapper
2123) selection removed, since someone appears to be maintaining it now. See
213 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/linux/kernel/patches/console for recent sources.
214 For the time being, I'm keeping a copy in the historic subdirectory of
215 util-linux. A "make install" should work find from within that
216 directory.
2174) Note that other floppy utilities are available from:
218 ftp.imag.fr:pub/Linux/ZLIBC/fdutils/fdutils-4.1.src.tar.gz
219 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Misc/fdutils-4.1.src.tar.gz
220 tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/sources/sbin/fdutils-4.1.src.tar.gz
221
222
223HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.1:
224
2251) Directory structure rearrange, with configuration support for those who
226 use shadow passwords and System V init (no support is provided for these
227 things, but your utilities won't get overwritten if you do a "make
228 install" after you properly edit MCONFIG).
2292) fdisk and cfdisk should work as expected with 2GB+ disk drives
2303) As usual, lots of stuff was updated and added, including mount, vipw,
231 readprofile
2324) Some stuff was also deleted, and can now be found elsewhere:
233 fsck wrapper: tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/ALPHA/ext2fs/e2fsprogs*
234 pwd, su: prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/sh-utils*

368 Rick Sladkey put together the mount-0.99.6.tar.Z package, and Stephen
369 Tweedie provided updates. The utilities were originally from that
370 package (all appear to be by Doug Quale (quale@saavik.cs.wisc.edu),
371 with modifications by H. J. Lu (hlu@eecs.wsu.edu) on 11/25/92; Rick
372 Sladkey (jrs@world.std.com) in January 1993; and Stephen Tweedie
373 <sct@dcs.ed.ac.uk> on 8 October 1993. This distribution mount now
374 supports NFS stuff. I have modified the man pages. I have also added
375 a small patch from Hamish Glen Coleman (t933093@minyos.xx.rmit.OZ.AU)
376 which restores the -o semantics.
377
378 Updated with Rick Sladkey's mount-0.99.14.tar.gz package, and with
379 extra patches from Rick. Adam J. Richter allowed -t option to be
380 optional. Patrick J. Volkerding (volkerdi@mhd1.moorhead.msus.edu) and
381 Mitchum DSouza both provided patches that fixed the (null) problem when
382 not using -t. Mitchum DSouza
383 (mitch@mrc-applied-psychology.cambridge.ac.uk) added support for loop
384 device mounts. Sebastian Lederer
385 (lederer@next-pc.informatik.uni-bonn.de) added support for sending an
386 unmount RPC call to the server when an NFS-filesystem is unmounted.
387 Sander van Malssen (svm@kozmix.hacktic.nl) added support for remounting
388 readonly file systems readonly. Mike Grupenhoff
389 <kashmir@umiacs.UMD.EDU> added a probe of the superblock for the type
390 before /proc/filesystems is checked. Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl fixed up
391 error reporting.

396historic/selection: The complete selection-1.5 package, by Andrew Haylett
397 <ajh@gec-mrc.co.uk>, 17th June 1993, is included in the historic tree.
398 Kernel patches are no longer necessary for modern kernels, but these
399 were tiny so I left them in for historical reasons. The Makefile was
400 modified for this distribution. With changes from Rick Sladkey.

436 notes about this in the documentation. However, Theodore
