Last change on this file since 06548ca was 06548ca, checked in by William Harrington <kb0iic@…>, 10 years ago

Rename bootscripts.xml to boot-scripts.xml to be consistent with the master branch book and the fact that our boot scripts package is named boot-scripts, as well. However, this is also very helpful for the jHALFS CLFS/master.sh script for automated builds.
