Solutions-looking for problems thus over-engineering and control seems to be the characteristics of this current era. Take grub2, its seems well nigh impossible to manually create a grub.cfg. A convoluted epistle is autogenerated. As for systemd, I am hoping to learn it to hack into it. And I still remember devfsd being bullied and frozen-out for udev. But Consider bsd-style bootscripts in an elegant scripting language like python ? with all the bullying surrounding systemd I would not be at all surprised if soon a group emerges with such. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
