What about getty

lupinix · 06-10-2008, 04:02 PM

Hello!

I can't find the package getty in bluewhite 12.1, but I can find it on my Slackware 12.1 system. Why hasn't got bluewhite64 the package getty?

Best Regards
Christian

So, I succeded to compile the getty-ps. The next -current update will include this package

OK, thank you. I have found another missing package. It's loadlin (well, I don't need it, but it's included in Slackware 12.1 (series a)

By the way: There are some mistakes inside the slack-descs of the kernels (kernel-huge)

# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

Well, I think you have used the original slack-desc from Slackware, but I think, bluewhite64 hasn't got a kernel-generic-smp.

loadlin is a bootloader that runs on DOS systems
I doubt anybody will need it
