[PATCH] Support for "hardware burn-in" stage (updated)

From: Chris Lamb <chris(at)chris-lamb.co.uk>
Date: Thu Feb 14 2008 - 10:25:36 EST

Dear friends,

This is my updated patch to support a hardware burn-in stage in D-I by way of enhancing the existing cpuburn package in Debian. Please refer to the original thread for justification and discussion, etc.

http://people.debian.org/~terpstra/thread/20080208.150527.45aeb62d.en.html

This updated patch attempts to auto-detect the burn type to use, and incorporates a number of suggestions made on the previous thread.

The patch is in three parts:

Modifies cpuburn packaging to be more accomodating to another binary package. (This is mostly moving debian/foo -> debian/cpuburn.foo, etc.)
Moves all patches from the .diff.gz to debian/patches and quilt. (This is completely optional and only required if building directly from the upstream tarball.)
Adds the cpuburn-udeb package (the interesting bit)

By request, I have uploaded some screenshots and .deb packages for i386 and amd64 here:

Do you need help?

Please validate SHA1 checksums before use
