Second, the Packages size is *one* limiting factor, using long names (>8.3) is another one. And I don't want be to restricted to DOS 8.3 naming limitations on a project I do for fun and get rid of it since I left DOS in the eighties of the last century. We do have a solution without restricting ourself to an ancient file system. > > It's a flaw, we have to solve otherwise. > > > > We solved that limitation in install.sh, though I don't know what happens > > if a user installs from ISO image to a 1GB partition, with a command > > setting root- dir-entries to 1024 - for FAT32 it's to 0/ignored. > > > > Probably the solution should be to make ext2/3/4 the default instead of > > VFAT...? > > Maybe, but then it requires some *X system to build it.

I'm talking about install.sh to install LEAF from an LEAF ISO image onto the storage media , where the process of installation is totally within a Linux environment and under our control. kp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
