Summary

0001250: Targets do not work correctly on Mac OS X

Description

Mac OS X has no "root" group, it has "wheel" instead as group 0. Therefore, it would seem better to use numeric ids for chown commands in target build scripts. Also, genext2fs 1.3 does not build on OS X, but the newly released 1.4 does. Some arguments have changed and it should support hard links now. Attached a patch to, hopefully, handle all these issues.

Notes
(0002198) holin 03-02-07 23:45	"0001225: Bump genext2fs" probably does a better job at upgrading genext2fs than this one. The other parts still apply, though.
