bootmenu in cvs

Beitrag von mirakels »

Hi (digi_casi),

I noticed quite some activity in enigma cvs for the bootmenu.
I looked around a bit but did not find any info about how this is supposed function/work and how the interface looks like.

Within the Pli team I played a bit with rcS and dreamflash to start dreamflash bootmenu as soon as possible, avoiding all kind of rcS code that will run again when the actual imgae is started.

So I am interesed in how the this new bootmenu code works. Is more info or links available?

Thanks

the bootmenu is based on dreamflash by mechatron and works pretty much the same way.

I more or less got that from the cvs comemnts :)

So the dreamflash plugin just becomes part of enigma, and the bootmenu program is still started from /var/etc/init?

I was hoping it would become sort of a grub boot menu so we could get rid of chroot setup...

no still chroot... works fine, doesn't it?
the plugin is just for installing the image... it is not part of enigma... just the bootmenu.
