It never did, but one of the core ideas of "open" is cooperation. And that's one thing I didn't see in that report. Being told "bah, not supported." is like having a door slammed in your face. I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking it's not particularly conducive to openness and cooperation. > If you don't like it, submit patches to the opensuse project Pretty much what I did in the report - the solution is straight forward, just add "jfs" to the INITRD_MODULES settings when /etc/sysconfig/kernel is created. But the SuSE guys obviously didn't like it, and decided to fob me off with a "not supported". By the way, where should patches be submitted? Is there an official maintainer list? For instance, where would I submit a patch for fixing this initrd problem? And where do I check what the official specs are? I mean, I could go write the patch only to be told "we don't need it, coz' we don't support it". /Per Jessen, Zürich --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
