Abstract: Linux, UNIX and other operating systems allow for the customization of the boot up process by adding symbolic links and scripts to certain directories in the root filesystem. Such customization is done at the time the system is created or updated via patches. The current disclosure teaches a method to simplify customization, both from the standpoint of installation as well as from the standpoint of the application developer.

Abstract translation: Linux，UNIX和其他操作系统允许通过向根文件系统中的某些目录添加符号链接和脚本来定制启动过程。 这种定制是在创建系统或通过补丁更新时完成的。 目前的披露教导了从安装的角度以及从应用开发者的角度来简化定制的方法。

Abstract: Normal 802.3 Ethernet requires a tree topology. If a ring or a loop exists, then packets will be forwarded around the ring indefinitely. If the ring is broken, then there is no possibility of packets being propagated forever. This invention shows how to quickly impose a virtual break in the ring such that all nodes (1000, 1005, 1010, 1020, 1025) can communicate with each other, and how to remove the virtual break when a real failure occurs. This is accomplished by placing intelligent nodes (1000, 1005, 1010, 1020, 1025) on the ring that work together to virtually break and restore the ring. An embodiment is disclosed that handles a unidirectional break in a communication link (11027) where the unidirectional break is not sensed as an OPER DOWN state.

Abstract: This invention allows Ethernet to run on a ring topology by introducing breaks between the nodes (Fig. 5). The system can also reconfigure its topology in order to recover from failures (1520). This is accomplished by placing intelligent nodes (500, 510, 520, & 530) on the ring that work together to virtually break and restore the ring.
