Hi, Red Hat engineering is starting a new project we're calling "stateless Linux" for lack of a better name - some components of this are already in Rawhide, and others will be appearing shortly. We've been keeping the project a little bit quiet at first, but now we've written it up in some detail: - an overview document, available from http://people.redhat.com/~hp/stateless/ - a HOWTO document and a couple associated RPMs, available from http://people.redhat.com/dmalcolm/stateless/ There aren't many new RPMs for this, because stateless Linux isn't a single codebase or package, it's a set of changes across the distribution (you might think of it as a "philosophy"). Most of the changes are already in Rawhide (the highlights are mentioned in the StatelessLinux.pdf document). Appreciate feedback, especially from anyone who has time to try out the HOWTO. We expect the code to change quite a bit as issues and suggestions come in. Havoc
