Source at commit 1753 created 12 years 5 months ago. By blackosx, Merge recent package installer changes from my branch in to trunk. Includes updates to Credits, installation log messages and localizable strings. Check for existence of EFI system partition before running the check for previous Chameleon installations. Only backup /Extra folder if necessary when running upgrade install. | |

1 | - Added AtiPorts option to GraphicsEnabler, so users can override the default number of ports. It proved␊ |
2 | to be useful when used to limit the number of ports that a framebuffer registers, which seems to be a␊ |
3 | requirement on laptops that can only use 2 ports at the same time.␊ |
4 | Thanks to Akbar for testing and AniV also for the tip:␊ |

52 | for maximizing the chance to get the most correct value before we decide to use a fixed value (1=desktop)␊ |
53 | - Fixed display cosmetics of UUID, now a convert.c file contains all ␊ |
54 | conversions api, to be completed by function that we should reuse.␊ |
55 | ␊ |
56 | - Fixed SystemType would be always forced to a value, now optionally changed␊ |
57 | only if overridden␊ |
58 | - Kept SystemID as the only option to change manually the system-id ␊ |
