Operating System database field

[Jason Pyeron]

If it did produce that line then the options *SHOULD* be avaiable. Not 
changed in existing entries.

I tested it prior to emailing, http://bugzillastable.pyerotechnics.com

does checksetup report the change after running a second time?
does localconfig have your changes saved?
did you undo your checksetup changes?
is there as permission issue?

can you blow it away, less localconfig, untar again (cvs up -dC), 
./checksetup.pl
