Your patches would be appreciated. I would be happy to rewrite the whole thing, if I could do a soft updates like license for the first year, and still be permitted distribute it as "FreeBSD". I might even be willing to fix up that Java stuff, and run the Java version of InstallShield to do the work... I'm kind of annoyed that it looks like my patches for the KERNCONF haven't made it in, so that the next time I roll a 4.3-RELEASE CDROM with my own bits on it, I'm going to have exactly the same problem with not having a kernel.GENERIC (stomping "GENERIC" locally is not a viable option, since it would collide with repository changes to the GENERIC file). Makes me not want to fix other things in the code, like it's internal list of packages, rather than reading them from a file on the CDROM, and really bloating the program image considerably, or the use of the path instead of the description line when displaying packages to be installed, etc.. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
