Well, I hope I could upload it next monday... At least on my ftp site to allow some of you do a trial. BTW, how should I commit my patches ? Either I completely missed the point about getting the "adam-boot-floppies_2-1_branch" branch or my last fixes (dated from 99/04/13) about 2.2 kernel support were not put in the tree. I have had to refix them in my current copy of the tree :-(( More on this topic: how do you manage to bring some fixes from your branch to the main trunk ?

I downloaded both silo 0.8.5-4 & 0.8.6-1 from ftp.prosa.it few hours ago, but which one should I use ? Which one will be put in 2.1r3 anyway ? >Davide Barbieri wrote: > I have put on ftp.prosa.it/pub/people/paci/silo > a new debian package of silo (0.8.5-4) > > there is only the binary packages, and it is there because > I don't want to upload it, until I'm confident it will work > > I have made a little hack, and it should now work on Ultra, > but I can't test because I haven't an Ultra: can you test it? -- Eric Delaunay | "La guerre justifie l'existence des militaires.
