While I've not read any upstart documentation to refute your assertion, I do believe that I've commented and uncommented enough since starting with F9 that I am fairly confident that there is, indeed, still the default ; as an inittab comment delimiter. > Just don't leave commented lines around. Fair enough, if that is to be the end product...but if you want to test something, and don't want to litter the system with dozens of backup inittab files and the like, commenting a line is quicker than fully editing it in and out. Probably a matter of preference, I would say. -- Mike Burger http://www.bubbanfriends.org Visit the Dog Pound II BBS telnet://dogpound2.citadel.org or http://dogpound2.citadel.org To be notified of updates to the web site, visit: https://www.bubbanfriends.org/mailman/listinfo/site-update or send a blank email message to: site-update-subscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
