source: chapter01/changelog.xml@ b340d68c

Last change on this file since b340d68c was b340d68c, checked in by Jeremy Huntwork <jhuntwork@…>, 18 years ago

Added a command to create an empty /etc/mtab file early in chapter 6. This
avoids testsuite failures in e2fsprogs and possibly other programs that
expect /etc/mtab to be present. Explanation from Dan Nicholson, slightly
modified.
Also merged the 'Creating Essential Symlinks' section with 'Creating passwd,
group and log Files'.
