[Devil-linux-develop] install-on-usb on 1.0.1?

From: Bruce S. <bw...@ar...> - 2003-10-31 16:00:55

Has anyone tested the changes I made to the install-usb-script?
Are they good to go in 1.0.1 too?

I haven't been able to test them yet because I haven't been able to 
build a new ISO (or make dist) this week because of various aborts.

I just tried the new script on a NON-devfs PC, and it works.
I recommend including it in 1.0.1 since it's not any worse,
and has a chance of working on devfs.

But then I won't have time to release it today, since I would have to 
start over.

You don't have to start over, since it only goes in the make dist 
(it's not even on the CD).  Just kill your upload, update the new
install-on-usb script and run  "make dist"  again.

No it was more because I don't have much time today.

BUT I have trouble uploading files right now anyway, so I'll delay 1.0.1 
for another 1-2 days.
Let's see what comes up the next 2 days.

i tried the latest version available on the cvs yesterday, and they work without problems. i sent an email yesterday night about it, and added a fdisk -l to show the partation table before asking the user.
