Hi Ira, Sort of. I don't think it's ideal, but it's nice to be able to group together disk images, rcS files, and the amount of dram needed. Missing here is kernels and other stuff, so it's a half solution. I think we do want to have something like this autogenertade from a list of directories each one containing a configuration file that describes the benchmark (compatible kernels, disk images, scripts, systems, minimum ram, sampling information, how to product a "score" etc). You can specify all the things on the command line now, so that might be the easiest way to go. If you feel like implemented a better way to do this that would be great too.
