PACKAGE NAME:  bash-4.0.024-i486-1.txz
PACKAGE LOCATION:  ./testing/packages
PACKAGE SIZE (compressed):  812 K
PACKAGE SIZE (uncompressed):  3100 K
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
bash: bash (sh-compatible shell)
bash:
bash: The GNU Bourne-Again SHell.  Bash is a sh-compatible command
bash: interpreter that executes commands read from the standard input or
bash: from a file.  Bash also incorporates useful features from the Korn
bash: and C shells (ksh and csh).  Bash is ultimately intended to be a
bash: conformant implementation of the IEEE Posix Shell and Tools
bash: specification (IEEE Working Group 1003.2).
bash:
bash: Bash must be present for the system to boot properly.

PACKAGE NAME:  kernel-firmware-2.6.30.5-noarch-1_testing.txz
PACKAGE LOCATION:  ./testing/packages/linux-2.6.30.5
PACKAGE SIZE (compressed):  464 K
PACKAGE SIZE (uncompressed):  1520 K
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
kernel-firmware: kernel-firmware (Firmware installed by the kernel)
kernel-firmware:
kernel-firmware: These are the firmware files from the Linux kernel.
kernel-firmware:
kernel-firmware: You'll need these to use certain hardware with Linux.

PACKAGE NAME:  kernel-generic-smp-2.6.30.5_smp-i686-1_testing.txz
PACKAGE LOCATION:  ./testing/packages/linux-2.6.30.5
PACKAGE SIZE (compressed):  2892 K
PACKAGE SIZE (uncompressed):  3840 K
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
kernel-generic-smp: kernel-generic-smp (a general purpose SMP Linux kernel)
kernel-generic-smp:
kernel-generic-smp: This is a Linux kernel with built-in support for most disk
kernel-generic-smp: controllers.  To use filesystems, or to load support for a SCSI or
kernel-generic-smp: other controller, then you'll need to load one or more kernel
kernel-generic-smp: modules using an initial ramdisk, or initrd.  For more information
kernel-generic-smp: about creating an initrd, see the README.initrd file in the /boot
kernel-generic-smp: directory.
kernel-generic-smp:
kernel-generic-smp: SMP is "Symmetric multiprocessing", or multiple CPU/core support.

PACKAGE LOCATION:  ./testing/packages/linux-2.6.30.5
PACKAGE SIZE (compressed):  520 K
PACKAGE SIZE (uncompressed):  2730 K
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
kernel-headers: kernel-headers (Linux kernel include files)
kernel-headers:
kernel-headers: These are the include files from the Linux kernel.
kernel-headers:
kernel-headers: You'll need these to compile most system software for Linux.

PACKAGE NAME:  kernel-modules-smp-2.6.30.5_smp-i686-1_testing.txz
PACKAGE LOCATION:  ./testing/packages/linux-2.6.30.5
PACKAGE SIZE (compressed):  16656 K
PACKAGE SIZE (uncompressed):  64930 K
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
kernel-modules-smp: kernel-modules (SMP Linux kernel modules)
kernel-modules-smp:
kernel-modules-smp: A kernel module is a piece of object code that can be dynamically
kernel-modules-smp: loaded into the Linux kernel to provide new kernel functions.  Most of
kernel-modules-smp: these modules provide support for devices such as CD-ROM drives, tape
kernel-modules-smp: drives, and ethernet cards.  You can choose which modules to load by
kernel-modules-smp: editing /etc/rc.d/rc.modules.
