Make that v0.3.96, I just realized I had never uploaded the latest build.
I made the suggested change, and rebuilt the images. Uploading now,
should be done in about an hour.
- From the CHANGELOG:
slinky-v0.3.96 - June 12, 2003
- Script cleanup to make some prompts less ambiguous.
- Added the setterm binary to the install.
- Modified the initscripts to turn off
console blanking during the install.
- Added several virtual console capture device
files. We can now do console screen capture.
To capture output on VT1: cat /dev/vcs1 > out.file
(from VT2, obviously.)
- Added 'eject' binary to installer filesystem. The
Boot CD should now be auto ejected.
- Removed support for 7.x versions going forward.
- Added config file support to allow formatting "/"
WITHOUT further prompting. Be careful.
