3) Alan's semi-mythical and slightly buggy ext2installer tool
This is the one that should ideally get documented - and debugged 8)
I'll put some bits up soon, but because the tools have to work
with file definitions different to the host OS, its a horrible
horrible hack.
On other points anyone currently working on merging to 2.1.63, and the
status on the dynamic link bugs and X11 - Any chance of a serverless
XFree86 build set for the SGI yet - that'll let me build most of the
remaining RPMs
