I started with b74, then created an alt BE and lu'd it to b77.
b77 had problems with the FC disks attached, and never booted sucessfully.
Should I wipe that, clone b74 again and then upgrade to b78 over that?
Or can I upgrade the b77 BE directly to b78?
(on another note, anyone know for sure

For example, I have a package that delivers /.cshrc, /.login and /.logout.
If you prefer /bin/sh for root's shell, then why on earth are you
installing CSH login files of all

Funny, one of the first things I always do after
installing an instance of SXCE is to edit the passwd
file, change the home root directory to /root and the
default shell to /bin/bash. I know think I am not
alone.
That's most likely because you haven't typed in `man

Hi all,
I've been trying to figure out what changes i need to make to my begin
script, and/or the miniroot, so I booted into it and I've been looking
around.
While trying to look at files in it, I've seen very strange behavior
from 'more'.
First I noticed that:
# more /etc/passwd

No, more is just broken.
I think it expects to be able to read from stderr (for obvious reasons :-)
and exits when it cannot.
Just curious, can it

This has been discussed on the POSIX mailing list a while ago.
stderr is expected to be readable in the default case where stderr
is connected to the controlling tty.
Where does it say so in the standard?
The miniroot is *NOT* a POSIX compliant

In snv_75a, the miniroot /sbin/sulogin shell script contains this line:
exec 0 /dev/console 10 20
The miniroot /sbin/sulogin from snv_75a has SCCS ID
@(#)sulogin.sh 1.5. Has that changed for snv_77?
It's still the same in the gate.
