I knew it.

umm, but, for particular case, you could rather have it
to be "/2" then
because they aren't totally meaningless.
Otherwise they would not be in kernel.
At least I would not like to mess with totally
meaningless stuff.
If they are _totally_ meaningless, then, take them out.
But as long as Mandrake shows them on their screwed
up beatiful login, it would be nice if they would
not change every day. At least not without a reason.
So I was thinking it is a funny typo-kind-of-problem...
sorry for inconvinience.
elmer.
