New Entry:  a/devfsd-1.3.25-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to devfsd-1.3.25.
New Entry:  a/etc-5.0-i386-2.tgz:  Added smmsp and pop to /etc/shadow.

New Entry:  a/lilo-22.2-i386-4.tgz:  Added support for append="" to the simple
New Entry:    LILO setup menu.
New Entry:  a/kernel-ide-2.4.18-i386-2.tgz:  Rebuilt with kmod (really :-) and
New Entry:    without devfs (which is still considered experimental, and was
New Entry:    changing the /proc/partitions output in a way that was complicating
New Entry:    a lot of things).
New Entry:  a/kernel-modules-2.4.18-i386-2.tgz:  Rebuilt without devfs, and commented
New Entry:    out most of /etc/rc.d/rc.modules.
New Entry:  a/kernel-scsi-2.4.18-i386-2.tgz:  Removed.  Only the vanilla bare.i
New Entry:    kernel will be packaged as kernel-ide-*-*.tgz.  Other kernels will have
New Entry:    to be installed from the CD-ROM or a bootdisk.
New Entry:  a/modutils-2.4.16-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to modutils-2.4.16.
New Entry:    Added /etc/cron.hourly/kmod to autoclean unused kernel modules.
New Entry:  a/reiserfsprogs-3.x.1b-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to reiserfsprogs-3.x.1b.
New Entry:  a/syslinux-1.72-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to syslinux-1.72.
New Entry:  a/sysvinit-2.84-i386-13.tgz:  It looks like rc.modules has to come after
New Entry:    setting the clock in rc.S.  Otherwise, depmod may stamp the wrong time
New Entry:    on modules.dep and other files, which can lead to false warnings that
New Entry:    modules.dep is too old every time a module utility is used.
New Entry:    Changed the serial line examples in /etc/inittab to use -L (local, no
New Entry:    carrier), 9600 baud 8N1.  (suggested by Cameron Kerr)
New Entry:  a/xfsprogs-2.0.3-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to xfsprogs-2.0.3.
New Entry:  f/linux-faqs-20020507-noarch-1.tgz:  Linux FAQs updated.
New Entry:  f/linux-howtos-20020507-noarch-1.tgz:  Linux HOWTOs updated.
New Entry:  f/linux-mini-howtos-20020507-noarch-1.tgz:  Linux mini HOWTOs updated.
New Entry:  gnome/abiword-1.0.1-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to abiword-1.0.1.
New Entry:  gnome/esound-0.2.26-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to esound-0.2.26.
New Entry:  k/kernel-source-2.4.18-noarch-2.tgz:  Changed package arch to 'noarch'.
New Entry:    Updated /usr/src/linux/.config to match the new bare.i configuration.
New Entry:  kde/qt-3.0.4-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to qt-3.0.4.
New Entry:  n/bind-9.2.1-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to bind-9.2.1.
New Entry:  n/dhcp-3.0pl1-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded to dhcp-3.0pl1.  This fixes a remote
New Entry:    security hole, so if you run dhcpd (this is NOT run by default), then you'll
New Entry:    want to upgrade this right away.
New Entry:    (* Security fix *)
New Entry:  n/tcpip-0.17-i386-9.tgz:  In rc.inet2, look for a user-supplied
New Entry:    /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall before enabling packet forwarding.
New Entry:  bootdisks/:  New bootdisks.
New Entry:  kernels/:  Added some new kernels and rebuilt all the others (+kmod -devfs).
New Entry:  rootdisks/:  New rootdisks. (syslinux and other updates/fixes)
New Entry:  isolinux/:  Use the kernels in the kernels/ directory.  Burn the isolinux
New Entry:    and kernels directories closer to the beginning of the disc using -sort
New Entry:    (see isolinux/README.TXT).
