-Chapter 5: Added Makedev to chapter 5. We don't create the device files
-here, only copy the MAKEDEV script and make a temp copy which will be
-used to create device files. This second file (MAKEDEV-temp) doesn't
-contain user names and group names but only user id's and group id's. We
-need a few device files to get Glibc installed, but, before Glibc is
-installed, user and group names are not recognized yet, only the numeric
-id's. This requires a slightly modified MAKEDEV script which will be
-generated by patching the original one. This patching is done here in
-chapter 5. Also, fixed the explanations on both makedev installations.
+Chapter 7: Added [ ATTN ] warning message to the functions script. When
+you attemp to start a service that's arleady running or stop a service
+that's not running, it'll not print FAILED anymore but [ ATTN ] along
+with "Already running" or "Not running".
