guys didn't add network support to SCCS/TW and just release that as open source, too. It's not like doing so would divulge any top secret trade secrets. Thanks for any pointers anyone can give about my svn problem... -Ben This message posted from opensolaris.org

So since we have a working grub2 now (right?), where does one get it? In the Polaris tree, shouldn't we have a /usr/src/grub2 directory? -Ben This message posted from opensolaris.org
