But BLFS doesn't have rules files. They take the upfront educational method of using cat to create them as needed and since they need so few, it remains practical for them. If they started having several rules files or tons of lines of rules, then perhaps making downloadable files would make sense. In that case, then yes, I could see how they might fit into a combined tarball, though it will still pose problems regarding tarball versioning. > Some of the different architectures require changes on the device the > bootscripts are displayed on.

I can certainly understand that, but would that require a change to blfs bootscripts, or just the base bootscripts? Other than architectural differences in the base scripts, what would need to be changed in blfs? -- Archaic Want control, education, and security from your operating system?
