(I'm sending this back to help-hurd, since that's where the thread's
been.)
FHS 3.14.3 refers to them by name and description. I'll reword the
requirement to resemble the following.
"3.14.3 Specific Options
The following files, or symbolic links to files, must be in /sbin if the
corresponding subsystem is installed:
fastboot Reboot the system without checking the disks (optional)
fasthalt Stop the system without checking the disks (optional)
fdisk Partition table manipulator (optional)
fsck File system check and repair utility (optional)
fsck.* File system check and repair utility for a specific filesystem
(optional)
"
...and so forth
Thanks,
Richard
