Re: modutils
I was worried yesterday that I would not be able to boot the box, but the
upgrade went quite well. Thanks, Debian.
On that box dselect shows:
-** modules
*** modutils
and does not have a modules.prerm.
My box at home shows
*** modules
*** modutils
and modules.prerm has no checks.
On neither box did /etc/init.d/boot get changed to reference
modutils. So I edited it with vi <g>.
Everything works. but I thought this should be reported in view of the
approach of 1.3.
Thanks for the help
Lindsay
