There wasn't any response after that. The ensuing discussion was about the installer. The point that I attempted to reiterate was that my concern is that there is no substitute for sysinstall's post-installation system configuration features, and until there is we should keep it around. Sorry if I wasn't clear. > Are you requesting these commits be reverted? I'm requesting that sysinstall remain in the base until there are replacements for all of its functionality. So just to be 100% clear, yes, I'm asking you to revert its removal.
