> - /dev is 3k bigger How practical would it be to compile devfs and include devfsd in the bootfloppies?
on my system, devfsd is 33k, 15k after gzip. This would let b-f get rid of /dev/*, and could make for more reliable installation scripts (i.e, once you've inserted the module you can forget about whether there's a dev entry). I'm not sure if bootfloppies is using a 2.4 kernel, though. Probably not, considering the massive increase in size between 2.2 and 2.4. -- Rob Bos, rbos@{sandwich.net,linux.com}, expert on everything and everyone "The computer, while giving you tools, imparts neither skill nor talent." --Dennis Powell -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
