Currently Heads relies on a hard-coded config value to determine which
USB disk to mount. This can be problematic when trying to distribute a
pre-built version of Heads that can work on multiple disk
configurations. I've modified the USB mounting script so that it
attempts to detect all USB boot disks present on the system, pick sane
defaults, and prompt the user when there are multiple choices.
I've also removed the USB configuration option from config-gui.sh as
this config option is no longer used.
We need to handle the case where the specific config file doesn't exist,
or else grep fails, so we touch the file ahead of time. Mounting the usb
storage caused problems when you re-enter the menu a second time, so we
will just load the storage module.
As part of the config gui we want to be able to have the system define
new config options without them being lost if the user makes their own
changes in CBFS. To allow that this change creates a function initiated
in init that combines all /etc/config* files into /tmp/config. All
existing scripts have been changed to source /tmp/config instead of
/etc/config. The config-gui.sh script now uses /etc/config.user to hold
user configuration options but the combine_configs function will allow
that to expand as others want to split configuration out further.
As it stands here are the current config files:
/etc/config -- Compiled-in configuration options
/etc/config.user -- User preferences that override /etc/config
/tmp/config -- Running config referenced by the BIOS, combination
of existing configs
This change will add a new GUI script that will allow users to change
their running configuration (currently just /boot and USB boot options)
and optionally persist that modified configuration with reflashing the
BIOS with a modified cbfs.
