Description Jimmy W 2004-03-17 04:26:46 UTC

Here is a patch i made to baselayout-package that make a dynamic allocation
for scripts like net.eth0, so that you wont need to make symlinks like
ln -s net.eth0 net.eth1 anymore. I hope you guys like it, keep up your good work! / Jimmy.

neat idea, but this doesnt apply cleanly against cvs and it can lead to obscure problems like someone accidently running rc-update with a typo
