I am aware of the nice make world tutorial, and I am also happily making worlds with /etc and /dev updating, but I have no clue of how to deal with /stand stuff. I am especially interested in sysinstall, which should have been modified for the changed slice code. I don't dare touch my old sysinstall. I thought of downloading a boot floppy and copying /stand of it, but this can't be the truth, can it? I hope there is some magic make syntax I could use (like for the /etc stuff), other than "make release". If there is indeed, than it should be taken into the tutorial, if not, maybe it should be introduced (?) [but I still would like to know what to do until then].
