> alias block-major-6 lp parport_pc
This shouldn't be parport_pc, but rather parport_local -- this isn't
correct for those without pc style parports. (Though it won't have any
negitive impact, other then an unneded module loaded.)

binfmt_java is officaly depreciated -- this should probably be commented
out. Anyway, isn't the magic cafebabe?
