Note +the information in this file is in reverse order. + +## OpenRC-0.13.2 + +A chroot variable has been added to the service script variables. +This fixes the support for running a service in a chroot. +This is documented in man 8 openrc-run. + +The netmount service now mounts nfs file systems. +This change was made to correct a fix for an earlier bug. + +## OpenRC-0.13 + +/sbin/rc was renamed to /sbin/openrc and /sbin/runscript was renamed to +/sbin/openrc-run due to naming conflicts with other software. + +Backward compatible symbolic links are currently in place so your +system will keep working if you are using the old names; however, it is +strongly advised that you migrate to the new names because the symbolic +links will be removed in the future. +Warnings have been added to assist with this migration; however, due to the +level of noise they produce, they only appear in verbose mode in this release. + +The devfs script now handles the initial mounting and setup of the +/dev directory. If /dev has already been mounted by the kernel or an +initramfs, devfs will remount /dev with the correct mount options +instead of mounting a second /dev over the existing mount point. + +It attempts to mount /dev from fstab first if an entry exists there. If +it doesn't it attempts to mount devtmpfs if it is configured in the +kernel. If not, it attempts to mount tmpfs. +If none of these is available, an error message is displayed and static +/dev is assumed. + +## OpenRC-0.12 + +The net.* scripts, originally from Gentoo Linux, have +been removed. If you need these scripts, look for a package called +netifrc, which is maintained by them. |
