| This means that a gen_stack can be passed as a single entity to functions. Also, am using a struct string to store the complete command. This allows me to reduce the size of the system() function slightly. | This means that a gen_stack can be passed as a single entity to functions.

| + | July 25: Had the weekly meeting today. Things to do for next week: documentation of scripting changes, and sending in the next patch, which is the arithmetic parser. Decided to also start on writing an autoboot script, which will implement the current autoboot procedure, in a script. This could serve as a useful example. Now, an interesting part of the autoboot process is the PXE menu. There are some DHCP settings that need to be checked for that. | ||
