rac... though most of his arguments are invalid once we updated the stages. His arguments were that we should always use stage3 because stages 1 and 2 caused problems, which they did. These problems have been resolved by making the stages fuller. However, in doing so, we reduced the legitimate need for having these stages to almost nothing. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead x86 Architecture Team Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
