[Devil-linux-develop] booting/building

[Roland P. <rp...@ne...>]

Hi,
I built another DL recently and have a few questions & suggestions. I don't 
have time to send them all today, so I'll just start with two easy ones:

I had a pile of unlabeled CDs with different versions of DL on them and 
needed the latest, so I put them in and looked at the boot screen.
The initial boot screen shows the boot options but not the DL version number 
(any more). I guess the line with the version number was taken out back when 
we patched in the VGA mode options. I attached a patch to show the version 
number again on the main boot screen.

Could you upgrade hostapd to 0.5.8 ? I am building DL with madwifi & hostapd 
for AP with a mini-PCI wlan card, but having little hardware stability 
problems (nothing serious, just have to restart hostapd every hour, the log 
error is "Hardware didn't respond as expected", hoping new versions will take 
care of that...)

thanks,
Roland
