- They've done the work for us.. I think we should use this document as a
- very good starting point.
-
- All that's left to do for us is to find any MiNT specifics and integrate
- them into this structure.
-
- So I would suggest:
-
- o /usr/src/linux becomes /usr/src/mint
-
- o /boot points to the MiNT boot directory (which has to reside on a Tosfs
- partition, currently); this includes mint.cnf and minix.xfs
-
- o I still like the /usr/kits + /var/kits idea.. What about
- /usr/kits/multitos?
-
- One more question: Can GEM programs be integrated in the structure?
- Perhaps /usr/gem/<kit> or /usr/kits/<kit> something?
-
- What I also like about this draft is that it doesn't prescribe whether
- /sbin/rc.* or /sbin/rc?.d/* is the standard. :-)
