[comp.os.minix] Problems upgrading 1.1 to 1.2

weyrich@csun1.UUCP (Orville Weyrich) (05/31/89)

Thanks to everyone who has helped me get as far as I am now.  I have a
few more problems and requests to be described below:


I got the patches for v1.1 to v1.2 from bugs.nosc.mil and had several problems
which are described below. Note that I am upgrading from the tape distribution
rather than from the floppy distribution, which may explain the discrepancies
which I note below.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THE FOLLOWING:
    I need the files /kernel/PCIX/klib88.s
		     /kernel/PCIX/makefile
		     /tools/PCIX/bootblok.s
    These files could be either v1.1 or v1.2.

    I also need to get checksums for all the files in the v1.2 baseline
    so that I can verify that I have a real v1.2 baseline before I go on to
	apply the 1.3 and 1.4a patches.

    If you have any of the above that you can mail me, please drop me a 
    mail message -- don't send anything until I ask you to, so that we
    can avoid wasting net.bandwidth with 100 copies of the same thing ;-).

    Thanks in advance.

    Mailing address is in the .signature at the end.

MY OBSERVATIONS:

File not found:
    v1.2/root/minix/kernel/MINIX/klib88.s
	but I did find file v1.2/root/minix/kernel/klib88.s which I
	moved to v1.2/root/minix/kernel/MINIX/klib88.s and
	successfully patched it.

File not found:
    v1.2/root/minix/kernel/PCIX/klib88.s

File not found:
    v1.2/root/minix/kernel/PCIX/makefile

File not found:
    v1.2/root/minix/tools/MINIX/bootblok.s
	but I did find file v1.2/root/minix/tools/bootblok.s which I
	moved to v1.2/root/minix/tools/MINIX/bootblok.s and
	successfully patched it.

File not found:
    v1.2/root/minix/tools/PCIX/bootblok.s

Hunk #3 failed for
    v1.2/root/minix/commands/df.c
	but the loosely applied patch succeeded (using -l switch to patch)

Hunk #1 failed for
    v1.2/root/minix/commands/ls.c
	but after deleting the comment /* DEBUG use 6D */ and
	changing %6D to %7D, the loosely applied patch succeeded.

Hunks # 3 & 4 failed for
    v1.2/root/minix/kernel/MINIX/makefile
	but after making some minor changes involving deleting cpp, the
	loosely applied patches succeeded with an offset of 4
	hmm... not exactly the same file -- probably 4 more lines of
	comments at the top.

File not found:
    v1.2/root/usr/include/stdio.h
	but I did find v1.2/root/minix/stdio.h which required the same
	patches.  I presume that the /usr/include is just a copy of
	/minix/include, so no problem.
