Hi There are a BUNCH of files in src/etc/etc.i386 that _REALLY_ should be nuked: (Look at the dates on some of these!) - 21508 Feb 17 17:05 MAKEDEV Does this have to be here? (Better in src/RELEASE with its baby brother ../MAKEDEV.Local?) - 6474 Jun 28 1994 README.1ST - 36633 Jun 28 1994 README.INSTALL These README's are for 1.1.5.1 - 28831 Sep 15 06:46 cdinst1.install - 2199 Apr 18 1994 cdinst1.profile - 367 Feb 21 1994 cpio.install* - 9135 Jun 29 1994 cpio.magic - 3111 Sep 15 06:46 cpio.rc AFAICSee, these are all for the 1.1.5.1 install floppies. - 5178 Feb 20 1994 disktab This, I believe, could comfortably live in src/etc - 80 Jun 20 1993 fstab.wd WTF is this? - 30179 Oct 17 04:32 inst1.install* - 159 Feb 21 1994 inst1.profile - 10680 Sep 15 06:46 inst2.rc - 1744 Sep 15 06:46 kc.profile More 1.1.5.1 crud... Also the Makefile in src/etc (which has been worked on recently) seems mainly concerned with making 1.1*-style install floppies. Can we not chuck it out? Whenever I do a build world, I resort to a hand checking of the files in src/etc directory to see what has changed. What about some way of automating this, so a make install will install the (hopefully) non- customisable files (like rc, services etc) and leave alone the ones that users are supposed to mess with (like netstart and hosts)?
