From 829bf6b9a167740a2a113c5af22bce222b7fc5bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Crispin Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2014 06:29:05 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] failsafe-mode: print short help on commandline [base-files] failsafe-mode: print short help on commandline Like mentioned in ticket https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/11911 this should make the IRC much quieter. Failsafe is somehow special and even experienced users are helpless, because they are not used to this seldom situation. Also: likely you have no internet access in this mode, so you cannot use the wiki. a failsafe-session now looks like this: first we see from 'package/base-files/files/bin/login.sh' the hint: === IMPORTANT ============================ Use 'passwd' to set your login password this will disable telnet and enable SSH ------------------------------------------ after this the /etc/banner ("OpenWrt - wireless freedom") and then the new text: ================= FAILSAFE MODE active ================ special commands: * firstboot reset settings to factory defaults * mount_root mount root-partition with config files after mount_root: * passwd change root's password * /etc/config directory with config files for more help see: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/generic.failsafe ======================================================= this supersedes the old patches: http://patchwork.openwrt.org/patch/3337/ http://patchwork.openwrt.org/patch/3553/ Signed-off-by: Bastian Bittorf SVN-Revision: 42985 --- package/base-files/files/etc/banner.failsafe | 13 +++++++++++++ package/base-files/files/etc/profile | 1 + 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+) create mode 100644 package/base-files/files/etc/banner.failsafe diff --git a/package/base-files/files/etc/banner.failsafe b/package/base-files/files/etc/banner.failsafe new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..14615e1ef7 --- /dev/null +++ b/package/base-files/files/etc/banner.failsafe @@ -0,0 +1,13 @@ +================= FAILSAFE MODE active ================ +special commands: +* firstboot reset settings to factory defaults +* mount_root mount root-partition with config files + +after mount_root: +* passwd change root's password +* /etc/config directory with config files + +for more help see: +http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/generic.failsafe +======================================================= + diff --git a/package/base-files/files/etc/profile b/package/base-files/files/etc/profile index e9a7119f1a..3dd58e14f2 100644 --- a/package/base-files/files/etc/profile +++ b/package/base-files/files/etc/profile @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ #!/bin/sh [ -f /etc/banner ] && cat /etc/banner +[ -e /tmp/.failsafe ] && cat /etc/banner.failsafe export PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin export HOME=$(grep -e "^${USER:-root}:" /etc/passwd | cut -d ":" -f 6)
