I thought the necessary changes had already got into the bootscripts
repository. If not, please submit a bug report to bugzilla, preferably
with a patch too.
Thanks,

Folks,
Now that the 6.1 cycle has started, here's what's on the cards for

Many thanks Alexander. Those don't seem too risky to get into 6.1, or
