The snoop list gives rise to no end of problems. It seems that a lot
of it will always be irrelevent to your situation, and you can never
comment out enough of it. The snoop file is needed during an initial
install, but why do we need to have it in the mix any time thereafter
?

I think there was also a version from the CDS site, which was supposed

to correct some timing error when doing a file compare after backup.
And this may be another example of where you need a smaller version
of a file, if you want it to fit on a set of emergency boot disks.
