Description Göran Uddeborg 2000-05-08 11:59:43 UTC 
I found a couple of typos in mkbootdisk-1.2.5-3.  There is a "$n" in one
place in the script where I strongly believe you mean "-n".  This isn't
critical, since $n is unset, and the -n flag to "test" is equivalent to no
flag at all.

Then there are a couple of mistakes in the manual page.  See the enclosed
patches for details.

Comment 3 Göran Uddeborg 2001-03-06 11:09:23 UTC 
The code is corrected in 1.4.2-1, and the missing .TP directives in the manual
page too.  But the font return codes after <devicefile> and <args> still miss a
backslash.
Comment 4 Erik Troan 2002-06-03 18:42:03 UTC 
fixed for 1.4.4
