Hi List,

I am using a Bering system booting from HD.
I am new to Bering ( and LEAF ... and LRP !) and I have to say I am VERY
impressed!!!

I use a  few packages including sshd (Nathan Angelacos)  / squid (David
Douthitt).

I read that Jacques will upgrade sshd in Bering1.0 final . so that's
great...
maybe David will offer a more recent squid ? ( squid-2.5.PRE8 or 2.4.STABLE7
?)
( or maybe Jacques will offer one for Bering?)

David, may I suggest to start squid in init.d/squid with -D to prevent squid
from stopping
if the DNS server is not available yet?

)
also I suspect that most people using squid will be using a harddrive of
will have tons of RAM,
but still, providing the squid.conf.default and mime.conf.default might not
be necessary and save
a few bytes of  .LRP.
[ As a side issue, I used libm.lrp on my Bering install and noticed that the
var/lib/lrpkg/libm. were not extracted...
and that they ended up beeing backup in my root.lrp ]

and finaly here is my request for a new Bering package:
the documentation http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bubooting.html
9.4. Booting from an IDE device
suggests to use a windows or linux rescue disk to "prepare" the hd. why not
using a Bering Floppy ???
It would be  great to have  fdisk mkfsdos, mkfsreiser [ yes I am using
reiserfs for my squid ] and syslinux
packaged into one HDinstall.LRP.
note: i have seen [ not used ]  fdisk+mkfsdos + syslinux on different
package from David so I suppose
one could copy them all . onto the bering floppy( but still no
mkfsreiser! ).
any comments?


fabrice.
