%files -f %{_topdir}/SOURCES/filelist. I can't figure out how to get it in
the sources without actually putting it in the sources. So this is the official
place to look for the list. :)
# I always thought the BEGIN statements were executed before everything else,

During the boot stage the filsystem type was used to determine whether
to use the genext2fs (non-root) method or the normal method used by root.
Now the user type is used, this is better because it prevents conflicts
if a different filesystem type is chosen, or if a non-root user changes to a
different filesystem type in the filesystem box and forgets to change back
to genext2fs; however, it prevents root from using the genext2fs method,
which isn't a problem. The sudo requirement for lilo is too much of a
requirement, and will be changed in future versions.
root_fs by using the libraries from the initrd. Liav instigated this by
asking a question related to FAQ question 14, "So if I understand correctly,
it is not possible to copy libc from /dev/ram0 to /dev/ram1 before mounting
/dev/ram1 as / ?
Liav pointed out how Yard can make boot/root floppies with a compressed root
filesystem. Edited FAQ question 13 to correctly reflect how gz compressed
root filesystems may be booted without an initrd.
entry won't be the same as that found in Root Filename, but instead reflects
the newly compressed file. This change was precipitated by the previous
change to the Accept behavior.
