[Planetlab-devel] MyPLC 0.4 Release Candidate 3 (myplc-devel-0.5-2.planetlab.i386.rpm)

[Thierry Parmentelat]

Hi Renault
It's good to hear that you can use rc3;
For making 'hot changes' to the bootmanager, you don't need to repuild 
the myplc pkg, that's really overkill here, and tedious
You'll find hints for this, and other similar issues on the same page, here

Please feel free to comment the directly if needed.
