This patch:
1. Has eight partitions per hard disk instead of 64,
to save indoes and not flood the disk images. This
time I didn't change the commented-out stuff like the
secondary IDE channel.
2. Remove the Conrad Parallel Port Radio Clock (which
I think is some sort of easter egg) from MAKEDEV.
3. Fixed the "make clean" process.
4. Got rid of the sudos in the Makefile.
5. Got rid of the ridiculous business with a ROOTDIR
that didn't exist and commands that weren't referenced
anywhere in the Makefile.

I would like to hear out some votes about this before actually applying
it.. in my personal opinion it should go, but perhaps anyone have a
different opinion? (Allan? Harry? Claudio? ... ?)

I agree. We can comment it, as the device is not used. Our problem is
that MAKEDEV makes too many devices by default and waste inodes on
the root disk. Comment out devices that are not obviously used, can
help. Maybe we can have a "--few-inodes" option or something like that,
for building the root disks.

Did you removed the warnings? The warning is there to tell the user that
make clean is a little broken (it doesn't restore the previous state of
rootfs_template), so we need to fix that, not remove the warning.

Huh? I didn't get your point, Tommy. Please detail your changes, and

I don't know what a major-minor number is, but the
number I changed were arguments to MAKESET that said
how many devices to make. Besides, I tested it myself
and the hard disk drivers don't even notice.

The patched Makefile doesn't alter rootfs_template at
all during make clean; but unless someone deliberately
modified what was in there it wouldn't be altered in
the first place.

The lines between 90-107 of the Makefile reference
commands that are not used anywhere else, and thus are
useless. They do, however, reference the variable
ROOTDIR, which is defined in Make.rules as a directory
that doesn't exist. So, I got rid of ROOTDIR and the
commands which aren't used.

Because A), why would a radio clock need to hook up to
a parallel port anyway, and B), name one distro that
supports such a thing.
