Wouldn't it be better to use ${SHELL}? Not every system has bash.

Maybe.
As it stands right now, mkuboot.sh does not run without bash.
And:
Reality check please.
A _development system_ without bash, installed per default on every sane
Linux distro, does most likely not exist.

Hmmm, can't argue with that. I wouldn't consider building a kernel on the warp sane ;) And to be honest, I am not sure anyone has tried. We officially support it, but I have never done it and don't plan to try. Cheers, Sean ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev

I still don't like it very much.. why not chmod'ing it +x instead ? :-) Cheers, Ben. ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev

So my change adds some sort of consistency and makes packaging more robust. Olaf ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
