Keep it in. The changes are meant to be placed in 2.2.6-RELEASE where most who install it will be doing fresh installs. Those who upgrade or cvsup the changes are at some point going to have to do it sooner or later. After all, FreeBSD is a work in progress. You can either stay in the past with the compatibility slice and not upgrade or backup, reinstall, and get the newest technology. Let's make life for the system developers easier. P.S. I don't mean to step on anybody's toes. This reminds me of the Fat32 problem Microsoft stuck everybody in. ---------------------------------------- Derek Flowers djflow@erols.com http://portwwwbus.tc.cc.va.us/~djflow "640K ought to be enough for anybody." -Bill Gates, circa 1981 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
