This is needed for me because I use it in a "non-standard" way: my build
process does not happen in a chrooted environment and the source tree is not
in the usual "/usr/src" location.

I agree that this is probably not very common, but it simplifies building a
custom CD image from arbitrary locations in the filesystem without adding
anything really bad to the script itself. Although the patch is now probably
obsolete since there were some changes to doFS.sh. I can look at updating
the patch if you want.



Patrick.
