LB is distinct from the payload, they are two separate works. --8<-- COPYING, just before section 3 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License. -->8-- Can a single file (LB+payload) be considered a volume of storage or a distribution medium? I suppose so. //Peter -- linuxbios mailing list [email protected] http://www.linuxbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
