[PATCH 9/9] skiproot - script for network setup without network root

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This allows you to set up the network for non-netroot things (like
fetching updates for live images, etc).

The other parse-*.sh script can set 'netroot=skip', and anything that
should happen when the network comes up can be put into the 'netroot'
hook, something like this:

  echo "fetch-liveupdate $update_url" >> $hookdir/netroot/liveupdates.sh
