It brings us about 8kbytes. 2) /boot/loader can be kgzip(1)ed. It brings us about (approx.) 60kbytes. Hack 1) is already committed into 5-current so it's safe to do. Hack 2) is not yet commited to any branches, but I've tested with recent 4-stable and 5-current and it works fine. -- - Makoto MATSUSHITA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
