Hello from Gregg C Levine As the title implies I went to the Wiki to work out how to download everything to bring myself into synch. It happens that the ones for the old CVS storage need to be revised. Sometime ago those crazy people at Source Forge rewrote the mechanisms behind the root for CVS, instead of the one here, cvs.freebios.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/freebios, they deleted the project name from the server handle. It is only used at the slash entries, such as cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/freebios . then do everything the Wiki says to do.
Once that was done, and I pulled over the stuff for the two versions there, I decided to use the mirror functions for the current Arch based repository. Using the wget program to create a mirror of the site, works. I've convinced the client that Debian provides to work for Slackware. Especially since none of the boobs who live on the newsgroup site have answered my question there. Now the question: Is the instructions given for using Arch, describing the methods for simply checking out contents, without any need for checking back in any changes? That is are they appropriate for what I've described. Or is there more here that I'm not following? ------------------- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."
