CVS commit: src/sys/arch/i386/stand



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   he
Date:           Sun Jul 28 08:50:09 UTC 2013

Modified Files:
        src/sys/arch/i386/stand/boot: boot2.c
        src/sys/arch/i386/stand/lib: bootmenu.c bootmenu.h

Log Message:
Two changes for the i386 boot loader related to the boot menu which
can be defined in boot.cfg:

 * Add a "menu" command which re-displays the menu and initiates
   the timed countdown
 * Use any default command defined in boot.cfg as default args
   if the user runs "boot" with no arguments

This is useful in circumstances where you e.g. need to interrupt
the normal boot process to switch to serial console, and where
simply "boot netbsd" is no longer sufficient (e.g. as with install
media which needs the miniroot kernel module loaded).
