Thanks jhb! I didn't even think of that! 1. What's the best way to verify that they're i386 and not also amd64? I thought i386 drivers will always work on amd64. 2. Should I remove the manuals also, or just remove the entries from the hardware release notes? As it stands I have at least updated the checklist at https://FreeBSD.org/~ziaee/pkgbase.htm Best, Alex
