Recently, mergemaster on ia64 offers this after installworld:


*** The installed file /boot has the type "symbolic link"
    but the new version has the type "directory"

    How would you like to handle this?

    Use 'r' to remove /boot
    You will be able to install it as a "directory"

    Use 'i' to ignore this

    How to proceed? [i]


I think it didn't ask this question before.
Is this just a generic, non ia64 specific, question?
/boot on ia64 must be a symbolic link, right?
