Hmm, I wonder where we got 8AX (from someone with Aisianux, I'm sure, I'm going to check...). Hm, the logs don't say where I got it from. Can someone on this list verify what that should be? Anyone with Asianux, please respond with the output of: # rpm -qf /etc/asianux-release --qf '%{VERSION}' > I also modify the script in vendor.guess.

The entire point of ./vendor.guess is that it has absolutely ZERO vendor-specific knowledge. We're not adding vendor-specific knowledge to the generic script. That said, Asianux also keeping /etc/redhat-release is really broken. Bad Asianux. _That_ said, we have to deal with the real world. I suspect that the sort order solves it. If we exit with our first successful vendor, we win (it will find asianux before redhat). Joel -- Life's Little Instruction Book #452 "Never compromise your integrity."
