Have you looked at what is in 3.3.R, and do you have suggestions for improvements ? BTW: on the floppy tree, quite a few files (e.g. those in /etc) would benefit a lot from compression (e.g. /etc/master.passwd, or the various databases). I was thinking of having them compressed on the floppy and gunzip'ing them on the fly at boot, and gzipping again when updating the configuration. This of course requires gzip to be on the floppy. However, now fs.PICOBSD.gz is an indipendent file and more easily manageable, i am considering wheter it is the case of putting there all the stuff that does not require "update". cheers luigi -----------------------------------+------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO, luigi@iet.unipi.it .
