Sample text

Enabling Multiple Users 41 Chapter 8. 1. Analysis The root disk has come a long way since its humble beginnings as a statically−linked shell. It now shares many features with the popular, ready−made distributions. For example it has: • Several common utilities like cat, ls and so on. • Startup scripts that automatically check and mount filesystems. • Graceful shutdown capability. • Support for multiple users and virtual terminals. As a final test, we can put the root disk up against the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS) requirements for the root filesystem.

So given these constraints, the best choice would be to put the program on a compressed floppy. 1. Mounting additional compressed floppies Mounting CDs and uncompressed diskettes is easy, but what about loading compressed images from floppy into ramdisk? It will have to be done manually, because automatic mounting of compressed floppies only works for the root diskette. And using mount /dev/fd0 will not work because there is no filesystem on the diskette, there are only the contents of a gzip file.

Chapter 6. Automating Startup & Shutdown 34 Chapter 7. 1. Analysis Up to now the system has been operating in single−user mode. There is no login process and anyone who boots the system goes straight into a shell with root privileges. Obviously, this is not the normal operating mode for most GNU/Linux distributions. Most systems feature multi−user capability where many users can access the system simultaneously with different privilege levels. These multi−user systems also support virtual consoles so that the keyboard and video display can be multiplexed between several terminal sessions.
