Hi, |

My comments about the candidate release features: |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
-2.6 based system w/ udev |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Every ppc livecd kernel is 2.6 based. udev is untested. No time to test |
| 9 |
before release. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
-better smp kernel support |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
The smp kernel on 2004.1/x86 is the only one that boots my virtual pc. |
| 14 |
No problems on PPC. Please try not to generalize problems. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
-boot time dmesg saving support (save it to a file, /root/dmesg |
| 17 |
perhaps?) |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
You're not serious about "/root/dmesg", are you? |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
-manpages linked from the handbook (man2html?) or man in stage1 |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
man on livecd: yes (man in stage1: no (no ufed in stage1 either) |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
-portage package that contains release spec files |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
emerge catalyst? |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
-DVD iso |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Every user who sends me an empty DVDR gets one by regular email. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
-X livecd |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
An experimental one is scheduled for 2004.2 |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
-portage rewrite in C |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
This is without doubt the worlds worst candidate release feature |
| 40 |
request list I've seen. |
| 41 |

Best regards, |
