shutdownconfig: minimum size of save-file

May 14, 2012 — BarryK
Jemimah and Karl Godt observed a problem at first shutdown. It is possible to choose the size of the save-file smaller than the size required to save all the files created in the session.

Karl Godt created a patch for /usr/sbin/shutdownconfig to fix that:

More precautions
Username: BarryK
I have implemented a couple precautions from shinobar and Karl Godt: shinobar: prevent killing rc.shutdown at shutdown. Karl Godt: test that save-file mounted rw at 1st shutdown. Woof commits: http://bkhome.org/fossil/woof2.cgi/info/e74499f8f4 http://bkhome.org/fossil/woof2.cgi/info/6e511a4694
