There's also the "path of least resistance" issue. The default installs don't include a separate /usr, which means that fewer people do this, and subtle bugs related to it are less likely to be caught. (I'm certainly not saying that our software isn't well-tested. Just that there's no good substitute for having large numbers of people using the system that way.) -- James Carlson, KISS Network <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
