Good question. My method is to just use the space of the installed bootscript, as I download and unpack the bootscript tarball at the beginning of my BLFS build, updating the bootscripts as I see commits (or watching the changelog), as necessary. The current unpacked bootscript tarball is always available on my system, and my build scripts are set up accordingly. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 00:01:00 up 73 days, 23:34, 2 users, load average: 0.27, 0.15, 0.10 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
