That particular prompt always struck me as pointless. If a package can deliver /etc/rcS.d/S00bomb, it can do anything. Replace with any of a gazillion other "drop a file here to get something to run as root" locations. If you're letting a package install into places that require root to write, you just have to trust it. _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
