Hi all, I propose to Close this TRAC ticket as "fixed" since as of 4.3.1-beta1: - The necessary utilities are now in hdsupp.lrp - There is some new logic in the default /init script which runs the new utilities if they are present and LEAFCFG specifies LABEL= or UUID= - I have added some guidance notes to the Wiki at http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/leaf/index.php?title=Bering-uClibc_4.x_-_User_Guide_-_Basic_Configuration_-_LEAF_Packages#Configuring_syslinux.cfg_or_isolinux.cfg david ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
