[...] I'd vote for some consistent function within all of FAI that is similar in spirit to run-parts: - Execute all files matching a pattern in some well-defined order (usable for hooks in make-fai-nfsroot, hooks in fai, scripts in class/, scripts in scripts/) - BUT: also honor a .source extension and correspondingly source the file instead of executing it in place. I haven't checked the code, but Thomas probably knows right away: Are there even more places where something like this would be handy? Best, Michael
