#!/bin/bash
# A script to start UnixAos with a working directory which can be in a
# removable flash store.
# A flash store is accommodated in multiple machines by copying
# machine specific configurations into Configuration.XML and
# Oberon.Text.
#
# Conditions for this script to work.
# * The volume containing the working files has a reliable name.
# The names in /dev/disk/by-label/ and /dev/disk/by-uuid/
# are convenient. For example, a volume labeled A will appear
# as /dev/disk/by-label/A. Additional details here.
# http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html#builtin
# https://wiki.debian.org/udev
# * Mounting of the working volume is specified in /etc/fstab.
# What if the volume is automounted at a second location?
# If edit conflict is avoided, a second mount is probably harmless.
# * The following assignments to workingVolume and workingDirectory
# are consistent with preceding information.
# * An appropriate entry exists in /etc/fstab. Example.
# /dev/A /home/me/A ext2 defaults,user,users,exec,noauto 0 0
# * /etc/sudoers.d/sudoers is adjusted to allow the user to fsck the
# working filesystem.
# me mycomputer = NOPASSWD: /sbin/fsck
# Test fsck interactively.
# * If the working volume is removeable the user can mount it.
# Note the user option in /etc/fstab.
# * Prior to A2 revision 10272 the start scipt was /usr/bin/aos.
# For revision 10272, the start script is /usr/local/bin/a2.
# For a git repository <A2repo> and system <system> the start
# script is <A2repo>/<system>/a2.sh.
# Eg. /home/me/A2repo/Linux64/a2.sh.
# * aos attempts to create the link <workingDirectory>/.aoshome
# to aos but a FAT file system does not allow links. Resolved by
# reformatting to ext2. Ext2 in Wikipedia.
#
# This is the home part of the system drive.
