a/devs-2.3.1-noarch-24.tgz: Added udev-style /dev/md/* devices to save people
who boot between 2.4.x and 2.6.x kernels some trouble.
Thanks to Mircea Baciu for pointing out this possibility.
Note: Upgrading the devs package while running udev will NOT work.
a/sysvinit-2.84-i486-63.tgz: Patched rc.4 to check both /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
for gdm. Thanks to Scott J. Harmon.
Added a warning in rc.S that if you make an rc.modules.local that the other
rc.modules script(s) will not be run.
Don't try to start udev if sysfs and tmpfs are not in the kernel.
Use grep '-q' option instead of '> /dev/null' in many places.
a/udev-097-i486-2.tgz
ap/sysstat-7.0.0-i486-1.tgz: Added sysstat-7.0.0.
