This set of patches fixes virt-rescue rather cleanly. In particular
the problems with handling ^C are completely fixed.
Work still to be done before this can go upstream:
- Shutdown doesn't work properly if you exit the shell. At the
moment to exit you must do 'reboot -f'.
Future improvements:
- An escape sequence and escape commands that could be handled by
virt-rescue, eg. to shut down the appliance, mount or unmount
filesystems.
- `virt-rescue -i' could be implemented cleanly by performing the
right API calls before handling control to the rescue shell.
I'm not intending the do the future stuff just yet.
Rich.
