If it's going to be a per user install, then we need special procedures to handle it. If not, we need to put it somewhere that is going to be writable, and have room for a large image. The disk image doesn't increase in size as it runs, does it? In my mind, anything under /usr is out. Could be read only, could be NFS mounted. If it isn't a per user install, then locking needs to be in place to make sure no more than one copy of klh10 is running. I'd like to open this up for feedback from ports people. I'm cc'ing petef@ and portmgr@ in order to get informed opinions. -- Alan Eldridge "Dave's not here, man."
