lock. Clearly I forgot the last step. As for hardened and 2.4.x it seems most of our users are wanting 2.6.x now and unless users/devs show interest I can't really see us needing to produce a new set of 2.4.x based 2006.x stages. -- solar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Gentoo Linux -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
