Re: Changes is newer in nALFS tarball than in the CVS repository

Hrm, my cvs checkout was wrong. I used with -D "2004-01-01 00:00:00" 
this morning, and unfortunately this didn't worked as I wanted to.

Strange...

Typo in nALFS/README

"method to contact the developers and others users of the program."

it should be 'the developers and other users of the program.'

copying kernel config in nALFS/config_sample

Hi,

although in the LFS-BOOK, the kernel configuration is not copied to 
boot, I find that very usefull. Especially for people who don't know if 
they included certain options etc. I suggest to add:

<copy>
    <source>.config</source>
    <destination>/boot/config-&linux-version;</destination>
</copy>

Regards,
Daniel

We try to keep the profiles as close as possible to the LFS book to
enable the testing team to use them. Deviating from the book therefore 
isn't a good idea although what you suggest is a nice tip.

Why is then the /etc/modules.conf in the config_sample/kernel.xml?

What are your versions of autoconf, automake and libtool? There's 
something very strange going on here, because automake thinks you're 
building a GNU-standard project (the NEWS/AUTHORS/ChangeLog files) but 
the nALFS Makefile.am turns that requirement off.

autoconf 2.13, automake 1.5 and libtool 1.5 from woody. With an LFS it 
works well. Maybe you should add a note in the Readme ->Requirements for 
an updated autoconf.

Thank you, I didn't thought for a problem in too old versions,
Daniel

I believe that's already in the nALFS Hacker's Guide, which should be 
required reading for anyone who is going to use the CVS version... we'll 
need to note that somewhere on the web site I suppose.
