Er, I meant ybin --bootonce. But you get the idea. Thank you for investigation and patch. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fixed in rawhide yaboot-1.3.14-7.fc11 yaboot-1.3.14-8.fc10 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 10. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/yaboot-1.3.14-8.fc10 yaboot-1.3.14-8.fc10 has been pushed to the Fedora 10 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Created attachment 323479 [details] yaboot-1.3.14-fix-bootonce-nvram.patch yaboot --bootonce doesn't work, for a couple of reasons: 1) It inverts the logic of a test to see if nvram is available, and 2) It assumes the output of 'nvsetenv VARNAME' will be 'VARNAME=VALUE', rather than just 'VALUE' (as it is when using the "nvram" utility). The attached patch fixes these problems and makes --bootonce work as expected.
