If it does, that line of code can be removed from GIT. I rebuilt tdelibs/tdebase 64-bit. I see what you did with the optical disk mount point naming. Looks great to me, best of both worlds and satisfies all concerns. Fundamentally, the previous scheme of appending a number is no different, but the new scheme actually is nicer and saner. :-) I plan to run a 32-bit package build set overnight but the final testing will be late tomorrow at the earliest. The machine with two optical drives is a PII with an IDE hard drive. V---e---r---y---s---l---o---w to install a full updated package set. :-) I'll run the first test with line 999 as is. I should see something like this: Slackware Install1 (hdb) Slackware Install1 (hdc) Or something similar. Unless the old numerical appendage is in the tdehwbackend code, I'm curious to see what happens with a package rebuilt with line 999 commented out. We'll see how that goes tomorrow. :-) Darrell
