Hubbard" <jkh@whisker.lotus.ie> Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.announce,comp.os.386bsd.bugs Subject: Patches 84 - 110 now available Followup-To: comp.os.386bsd.announce,comp.os.386bsd.bugs Date: 3 Mar 1993 14:35:52 -0800 Organization: University of California, Berkeley Lines: 32 Sender: cgd@agate.berkeley.edu Approved: 386bsd-announce-request@agate.berkeley.edu Message-ID: <9303032039.AA18088@whisker.lotus.ie> NNTP-Posting-Host: agate.berkeley.edu Patches 84 - 110 are now available on: agate.berkeley.edu:~ftp/pub/incoming/patchset84-110.tar With this release comes a new version of patches which will support recursive installation of dependant patches. Note that this results in a slight confusion if used with "IALL" since patches may automatically be recursively installed and then not found as part of the "ALL" list. This results in a harmless warning message at the end of the install - don't worry about it. The entire patches mechanism is due for a major overhaul anyway, so this problem will be fixed for 0.2.2. Highlights of this release are the ability to finally "make all" from /usr/src without failures and Julian Elischer's new SCSI drivers for the Adaptec (ISA + EISA), Bustek and ULTRASTORE controllers. Floppy disk users will be pleased to find that 360K and 720K floppy support is now finally present. For further information, please see the patch descriptions. NOTE: This is a BETA release and will be folded into the 0.2.2 release of the patchkit, so your feedback is vital. Please let me know if you experience any problems. Finally, many thanks must go to Chris Demetriou and Rodney Grimes for their invaluable assistance in Alpha testing these patches. Any problems that remain are my responsibility alone. Jordan
