Recently I modified Grub's linux initrd loader to append a cpio archive containing the cached PXE DHCP ACK packet to the loaded initrd/initramfs. The Linux MFS now looks for this file when configuring the network, and will use it to configure the interface instead of sending out DHCP DISCOVER requests. If the file is not found then DHCP will be used to configure the control net interface.

Once we determine which modules we need, parse the actual .ko files for 'firmware=.*' strings. These provide the path(s) to that module's firmware, relative to /lib/firmware. Remove all firmware from the output directory then copy in only the files we need.

Add '-c' option to gen_initramfs.sh to choose the compression type. Currently, it supports the following types: gzip (default), bzip2, lzma, and none. The toplevel Makefile now has a variable to specify the compression type of the initramfs, and passes it to gen_initramfs.sh. Currently it is set to lzma by default.

The following components of the Linux MFS were updated: Linux kernel => 2.6.32.9 buildroot => 2010.02 uClibc => 0.9.30.2 busybox => 1.16.0 binutils => 2.20 gcc => 4.2.4 gmp => 4.2.4 The Dell Optiplex reboot patch was removed from the kernel build as it is already present in 2.6.32.9. The update was done because: - The kernel was over a year old and significant updates have happened since then. - A few new useful features were added to busybox - The kernel now supports bzip2 and lzma compression for itself and initramfs in addition to gzip. Using lzma instead of gzip saves us at least 1.5 MB for the kernel+initramfs, possibly more.

The toolchain build should be dependent on an actual file to ensure we don't rebuilt it for every target that goes into the initramfs.

Also rename old fake tcsh to tcsh.fake, and run a new script that symlinks tcsh and csh to tcsh.fake if tcsh doesn't exist. This way tcsh can be removed from the build but tcsh/csh users can still log in.

The wget build for the Linux MFS failed because it target depended on the wrong path for the compiled wget binary.
