Re: tftpboot cleanup script draft

Warren,

Are there any files containing $version that we'd want to keep?  (e.g. 
abi-$version or *version.bak)

A better way might be to use 'find', e.g.

+=====+
#!/bin/sh -x

TFTPDIR=/var/lib/tftpboot

for kernelpath in $(find $TFTPDIR/ltsp -name vmlinuz-*); do
arch=$(basename `dirname $kernelpath`)
kernel=$(basename $kernelpath)
version=${kernel##vmlinuz-}

#if [ ! -d /opt/ltsp/$arch/lib/modules ]; then
#echo "delete these files..."
#find $TFTPDIR/ltsp/$arch -name *$version* | xargs  -n1 rm -vrf
#fi

done
+=====+

Finding vmlinuz- files will bypass the empty directories.  I don't like 
the way I derive arch, but it works.

The last 'find' could be as above or 
find $TFTPDIR/ltsp/$arch | grep $version

A removal method could be as above or
rm -rvf `find....`

Just a few ideas as long as we're not that picky about which $version 
files we delete.
