I just hit this in my email spool, as I had been travelling. It is quite intentional on my part that there is not a separate document. The code has some error checking, but it is also quite capable of completely damaging an installation beyond repair, as it is running as root, and as anyone who has read man 2 chroot knows, it is just a matter of time until some code inadvertently or malicious eludes the chroot, and its owner has to wipe and reinstall. I want a user of the code to not walk into that unaware. Once I have folded in some of the 'TBD' and roadmap code I will expand the internal doco -- perhaps in perldoc inline format (which works just fine in shell code), or perhaps a -h help option with a HERE doc dropping out a reminder. As always, patches, comment, and help welcomed. -- Russ Herrold rhel-rebuild mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hosted at the University of Innsbruck, Austria
