Just fyi... ast> I recently sent in a patch for this (compress loader, rm ast> /boot/boot? files) - see: ast> http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=29272 /boot/boot[12] was already removed from 5-current, so it is safe to remove from 4-stable also. However, 5-current floppy image has yet another hack by hosokawa-san which introduces 'kernel module floppy', and saves lots of sizes of kernel.gz itself (and have a chance to put back missing device drivers described in GENERIC kernel). Anyway, it's a good news if kgziped /boot/loader works fine. I've tested with today's 4-stable /boot/loader: -r-xr-xr-x 1 matusita wheel 147456 Jul 31 19:10 loader -rwxr-xr-x 1 matusita wheel 81508 Jul 31 19:11 loader.kgz wow, it saves approx. 64kbytes. -- - Makoto `MAR' MATSUSHITA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
