Bug 26812

Summary:	old bootstrap /sys/i386/boot/... still in -STABLE branch
Product:	Base System	Reporter:	dl <dl>
Component:	i386	Assignee:	Peter Wemm <peter>
Status:	Closed FIXED
Severity:	Affects Only Me
Priority:	Normal
Version:	4.3-STABLE
Hardware:	Any
OS:	Any

Description dl 2001-04-24 09:20:01 UTC

The old a.out boot-blocks in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot 
are still tagged with RELENG_4 and sub-release tags, thus
causing them to be included in the stable source tree, although
they have been removed by peter, since /usr/src/sys/boot/i386
is now the new bootstrap. 
Not a real problem, but confusing. I accidentally built 
and installed the old bootstrap causing some problems.

Fix: 

I guess, removal of Release Tags downto the release when the
new bootstrap was available could do the trick ?
How-To-Repeat: Well:
1. cvsup your -STABLE source tree
2. ls /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/biosboot (e.g.)

The above is a very practical fix.  It can be applied.  If there are no
more issues
arising after this audit-trail, then the PR can be gracefully closed.

Hmm, I don't see it. Did I miss something?
The PR is still open (not even feedback) and there is no audit-trail?
Maybe the pr number was mixed up?

Best regards,
 Daniel

Peter is not only the guy who's probably interested, he also happens 
to be a cvsmeistser. :-)
