Bug#284952: The USB block device should be disabled
I have gone through and turned this off for everything except mips, for which I am not sure about the structure of the package. Apoliges in advance to kerenel-image maintainers if I broke anything. -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Also, sould I go through and fix the config in svn, even though I can't build for any of these architectures? -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Ah, i also have some second-thoughts about this, since we cannot know exactly how the user is loading the modules. I will disable it in the ppc 2.6.9/2.6.10 kernels.

Horms - in general you are welcome to modify the ia64 configs; though you can also just dup a bug I can handle it before my next upload. I've gone ahead and fixed this one in svn. fyi, the current state of the art for ia64 config handling is to just modify the itanium config execute the sync_configs target in debian/rules. -- dann frazier [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
