By the way, where should patches be submitted? Is there an official maintainer list? For instance, where would I submit a patch for fixing this initrd problem? And where do I check what the official specs are? I mean, I could go write the patch only to be told "we don't need it, coz' we don't support it".
Patches should be shubmitted through Bugzilla. I don't know what you mean by "offical specs", but I guess you are referring to the source. Use the latests source rpms that are in the ftp trees as reference for your patches. Anyway, please note that we are already in RC phase, therefore a submitted patch can hardly make it into SUSE Linux 10.0. By the way, why did you start of this discussion again? Some weeks ago we already went through all this... Quoting http://lists.opensuse.org/archive/opensuse/2005-Aug/0702.html I should have given a more detailed answer in bugzilla. I'm very much in favor of the open development process, but unfortunately it doesn't mean infinite development resources ;) It's already quite late in the SL10 process and since JFS isn't supported by us I don't believe it is a good idea to include it in the installer.
