Fred I was just working with your new init stuff (it is GREAT)  and had a
few comments and questions for you.

1) When you run last after booting with the new init, the boot entry in
   /etc/wtmp had JAN 1 00:00 in it.  To fix this I moved the writing
   of the boot entry after the do_table(-99) in init.c instead of before
   it.  Since after it runs /etc/rc the date is then setup correctly.
2) You sample /etc/inittab had /etc/update exec instead of spawn.
3) Do you have a different date command which excepts -h as an argument.
4) What does you /etc/hupdaemon do, monitor dial in lines and check
   for DCD to drop and hangs the line up.  Can I get a copy of it.
5) Also, what about lpsched!  I don't have it with my Minix.  Where can
   I get it, I have only had Minix for 4-5 weeks now and I think I have
   missed some good programs?
6) Do you have /etc/telinit yet, I guess the best place for it is to
   be linked to /etc/init ???


   Keep up the good work Fred, this will become a permanent part of my
   Minix system.
