I've spent a little time looking at the hardware side of things and done a basic patch for some of the hardware stuff based on the current rawhide comps file. I've broken it down into network/server/misc for the time being and pushed the print stuff over to its group. More can be done as it was a quick look through. The old hardware-support currently includes all the other groups so there's no real change for current builds overall. I also noticed that alot of the filesystems group lists are replicated into base. I think base should have the core ext related tools to boot a default Fedora and the other stuff like ntfs should just remain in the filesystems group. Cheers, Peter
