IMO the solution using abspath=$(cd $dir;pwd)
to get the absolute path of dir does not work. When calling "fai dirinstall relpath" the user will specify a relative path that does not exist yet. So the cd will not work. Also using readlink -f will not help when the relative path does not exist. IMO it's better to force the user to specify an absolute path and to print a good error message in case he specifies a relative path. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
