This started with some irritation with the cdrtools port and a bug in the HFS hybrid generation that was breaking PPC release CD generation. Switching these to depend on makefs in general speeds the release-building process and removes the number of dependencies involved, since makefs is built as part of base. Actually, I was just interested in the 'bootimage=i386' part of your change. I totally get why you're doing it :-) Sorry for not being clear... -- Marcel Moolenaar marcel@xcllnt.net
