Hmm, how about those of us doing buildworlds/buildkernels on one (nfs)server for subsequent installworlds/installkernels on multiple other machines? With the current targets, you either have to build modules over and over againg for each `client', or you have to accept that /boot/kernel/* gets nuked when running installkernel (or, as you point out, one can use the old manual scheme). > Sheldon. /Niels Chr. -- Niels Christian Bank-Pedersen, NCB1-RIPE.
