Plus: The eaxct full src (including whatever build script changes) will be published, still to be decided what methods I will use in detail (other than just uploading the pkgs and the corresponding src trees and diffs). >My biggest gripe with Blastwave is that they are not System V compliant. > > The MRTX pkgs will. However, marTux itself will be rpm based while offering pkgadd compatibility at the same time. I make a second university break ofer the summer in order to get all my todo plans done. Or at least will I not subscribe to a 24*7 pensum of courses. *NO* time before March, though. >Dennis says this is because they wanted "everything in one place".

Second, the nfs client may not have /etc/opt/csw or /etc/opt/mrtx yet, and you need to mkdir them before you can mount. However, I also potentially intend to offer one or another driver. And I refuse to place those into /opt/mrtx/kernel or something. Wait and C :-) _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
