Description Bill Nottingham 2008-03-17 19:34:34 UTC 
Otherwise some of the included utilities don't work right in fubar-mode.
Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2008-03-17 19:48:56 UTC 
Which ones?  There's not much there, especially that should matter interactively
Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2008-03-17 19:57:21 UTC 
linux, obviously. Although that merely moves less from 'completely broken' to
'sort of working'.
Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2008-03-17 19:57:55 UTC 
That being said, it's not like /lib/terminfo is so huge you can't grab the whole
thing.
Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2008-03-17 20:03:56 UTC 
No, which utilities?  I'm just not clear on why this is a LiveCD problem (other
than the fact that we continue to have divergent initrd infrastructure.  *sigh*)
Comment 5 Bill Nottingham 2008-03-17 20:11:00 UTC 
less. bash is also a little screwy (no ctrl-c support, etc.)
Comment 6 Jeremy Katz 2008-03-17 22:20:54 UTC 
Added in git
Comment 7 Bug Zapper 2008-05-14 06:39:53 UTC
