Just a comment... > Now that there is zero use of /stand post-install, please add code to > sysinstall to rm /stand after it is done with it. Thanks. bmah> Perhaps you mean "please remove the code from sysinstall that copies bmah> /stand"? (Not like I've actually tried this.) Maybe not, or don't do that. /stand is still helpful if base distribution is NOT installed, and only the resort for the early stage of installation. We may use /rescue directory for that, but it is larger than current /stand directory, hard to putting it onto a floppy (yes we have a chance to do that if we disables floppy installation.) In theory, we can simply do "rm -rf /stand", but it is not enough to say goodbye to /stand directory -- sysinstall(8) assumes that the filefile is sitting on /stand/help directory (or sysinstall's source code directory, but it should not be there if a user doesn't extract source tree). But it can be easily fixed as you imagined :-) -- - Makoto `MAR' Matsushita
