Software for MiNX (I'd like this name...)
Hello all...
In this mail, I want to introduce the things I set up
at home in the last days - inspirated by the discussion
here in the mint list.
I tried to find a path structure that can be accepted
by everyone, but, of course, it's just a suggestion.
I have 3 Minix partitions: /e (root filesystem)
/g (var subdirectory)
/h (home subdirectory)
Here's my root directory:
/e:
total 11
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 2560 Jan 17 23:10 bin
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 672 Jan 18 18:10 etc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 10 Jan 15 01:24 home -> u:/h/home
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 192 Jan 17 21:22 lost+found
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 384 Jan 17 23:38 sbin
drwxrwxrwt 2 root wheel 192 Jan 18 16:54 tmp
drwxr-xr-x 8 root wheel 384 Jan 15 01:22 usr
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 9 Jan 18 00:48 var -> u:/g/var
In /usr, you find:
/e/usr:
total 15
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 2688 Jan 18 15:46 bin
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 2592 Jan 17 21:52 include
drwxr-xr-x 6 root wheel 1216 Jan 18 01:46 lib
drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 384 Jan 15 17:05 local
drwxr-xr-x 18 root wheel 576 Jan 17 02:52 man
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 64 Jan 15 01:14 sbin
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 13 Jan 15 01:20 spool -> ../var/spool
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 11 Jan 15 01:21 tmp -> ../var/tmp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 4 Jan 15 01:22 ucb -> bin
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 7 Jan 15 01:19 var -> ../var
And in /var, you find the subdirectories adm
log
spool/cron
mail
news
tmp
Ok, so far, so good. (or bad?)
Now I'd like to begin a new discussion about the software
that we should install in each directory (much more
interesting in my opinion!)
Here's my /bin:
[ csplit expand logname printenv su uniq
agrep cut expr ls printf sum vdir
awk date false make ps tac wc
basename dd fold mkdir pwd tail who
cat df grep mv rm tee whoami
chgrp dir groups nice rmdir test yes
chmod dirname head nl sed touch
chown du id od sh tr
cksum echo join passwd sleep true
cmp ed limit paste sort tty
comm egrep ln pathchk split uname
cp env login pr strings unexpand
And here my /usr/bin:
Pnews fiz last patch top
Rnmail frm ld printstk trn
apropos gcc less r troff
ar gcc-ar.ttp less.hlp sb unshar
arc gcc-as.ttp lesskey sdiff uudecode
as gcc-cc1.ttp lharc sendlog uuencode
bg gcc-cpp.ttp lpr size vi
c gcc-ld.ttp man size68 whatis
catman gcc-nm.ttp mem strip write
cc gcc-size.ttp mintvers stty xkey
cnm groff more sx xstrip
cpp grotty mthreads sym-ld yacc
diff gs newsetup sz zoo
diff3 gtar newsgroups tar zsh
elm gunzip nfrm tcsh
finger gzip nm termsize
fixstk install nroff toglclr
I think it's a good idea to have both /bin and /usr/bin because
- MinixFS becomes too slow if you have to much files in one
Directory,
- it's easier to keep the overview. :-)
/sbin:
ac getty init minit syslogd
fsck halt mfsconf
/etc:
gettytab organization rc.local termcap zshenv
group passwd rc.single ttytab zshrc
host rc syslog.conf utmp
motd rc.boot syslog.pid zlogin
For those of you who are interested in getting all the
stuff mentioned in this mail, I arranged a subdirectory `atari'
on our ftp server `pfsparc02.phil15.uni-sb.de' (134.96.82.13).
There is an ASCII file, produced by `ls -lR' and an archive
containing all the stuff.
Please tell me which files you are missing!
The directory is world-writeable, so you could upload the
missing pieces...
