retitle 320861 Really get upstream 1.6c version merge 314612 320861 tags 314612 - patch tags 320861 - patch thanks
Hi, Actually, upstream told me that these two issues _are_ handled by version 1.6c. I tested that and his 1.6c version indeed works fine! The problem is that what debian currently calls "1.6c.debspecfix" is actually a _1.6_ version, i.e. without any recent patch, i.e. something dated ~1995... His corrections are quite similar to the ones I wrote, so just take his. Please update to 1.6c: $ cd .../loadlin-1.6c.debspecfix $ ( cd src/ ; tar xzf srclinux.tgz ) $ wget ftp://elserv.ffm.fgan.de/pub/linux/loadlin-1.6/update-1.6c/patch-1.6c $ patch -p1 < patch-1.6c # update source from 1.6 to 1.6c $ rm -f patch-1.6c $ ( cd src/ ; tar czf srclinux.tgz srclinux ; rm -fr srclinux ) $ wget ftp://elserv.ffm.fgan.de/pub/linux/loadlin-1.6/update-1.6c/loadlin.exe.gz $ rm -f loadlin.exe # remove old 1.6 loadlin.exe $ gunzip loadlin.exe.gz # get new 1.6_c_ loadlin.exe $ $EDITOR debian/changelog $ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot And upload _that_. I repeat: currently, debian's stable/testing/unstable loadlin version is _1.6_, not 1.6c, just look in loadlin.exe and src/loadlin.asm. It would even be good to update stable's version for installation CDs, since the 2.6 kernel on them is bigger than 1MB...
