Hi guys,

Initscripts in [testing] contain some new man pages documenting /etc/{rc.conf,locale.conf,vconsole.conf,hostname}, intended for the next iso release.

Corrections and comments welcome (preferably in the form of patches to arch-projects...).

Cheers,

Tom

Thank you for this release! A problem though: I get a failure while setting timezone on a ro root with /etc/localtime symlinked to /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Chicago, which seems to be caused by this: $ grep zoneinfo /etc/rc.d/functions -m1 local tz=$1 zonefile=/usr/share/zoneinfo/$tz so $zonefile is only /usr/share/zoneinfo instead of /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Chicago. Later set_timezone() attempts to force-symlink /etc/localtime and fails of course. The fix is to replace the above stanza with: local tz=$1 local zonefile=/usr/share/zoneinfo/$tz Happy New Year! -- Leonid Isaev GnuPG key ID: 164B5A6D Key fingerprint: C0DF 20D0 C075 C3F1 E1BE 775A A7AE F6CB 164B 5A6D
