General
* Aim to update references to kernel versions and Slackware versions to those
used in the most recent release of Slackware. I've seen kernel 2.6.29.4 and
Slackware 12.0.0 for instance.
* more extensive CLI apps like v2.0
* no idea where the hell udev is covered in here, but we need to do a bit of
talk about it. Nothing too advanced, and we definitely DO NOT want to
imply that users should have to do much with udev. All of the asshattery
out there with trying to automount shit with udev is, well, asshattery.
* need to mention that /etc/udev/rules.d/<somefile> overrides an identically
named file in /lib/udev/rules.d/
* need to mention persistent rules that are system-generated, especially
in reference to how the admin might be misled into thinking that they are
causing breakage...
* need to point out that the persistent rules themselves are (according
to upstream) a bad idea - not sure I completely agree, but there is a
lot of potential for breakage, it seems...
* Need to mention iptables somewhere - perhaps consolidate some bits from
my iptables/netfilter presentations? --rworkman
Chapter 2. Installation
* Need to mention gdisk (for GPT parts) in the partitioning section
Chapter 10. Working with Filesystems
* Section 'Network Filesystems' / 'NFS'
You could mention here how the command "showmount -e <remote_server> "
allows you to find out exactly what NFS exports a remote server has made
available.
Chapter 16. Basic Networking Commands
* Additional tools to discuss: finger, host, dig, nail
ps-imgs
* These can all be imported into the GIMP and converted to SVG, but
leaving them in this format for now makes them much easier to modify.
* The various curses mail clients (pine, mutt) should have
"screenshots" for consistency to match other curses programs (in
particular the installer) so new users can get a real feel for how
these tools work.
* Additional the section on mutt needs to be reworked where it refers
to fetchmail, procmail, formail, etc. These are all seperate tools and
if we refer to them at all it should be as seperate tools with their
own subsections.
