I hate to say it, but I'm forced to agree with you, *if* the flat book remains. Like SysVinit, bootscritpts, and sysklod, it should be easy to break away from the basic and make a choice, but that's getting ahead of ourselves (please ream my response to Alexander's post which probably steps on Gerard's request too, but I happened to read Alexander's first). I'll give a response to Gerard's too, but It'll be more detailed and have to wait till tomorrow, I have to get up in 4 hours. -- DJ Lucas -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
