What are some of the major changes to /etc/fstab that could occur? The only thing I can think of is the renaming of fs types in the kernel (unlikely) but sed would be better suited to do this instead of replacing or actively merging differences. No matter which way you do it through etc-update you'll still have to edit the file manually. Actually, the other thing is the device paths could change, but here again you would have to use sed or edit the file manually because you cannot count on the user's system having the same mount / dump options or mount points. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
