Some thoughts:
I recently did a stage 1 install and found that the process seems to

- hence I see some of the reasons for abandoning it. In particular, the
recompiling needed to bring it to a GCC 3.4.4 with all the options
To explain, keep in mind that optimisation and chost are two different

i386 is a lowest common denominator instruction set that will run on

users.
However I have quite a number of system level root jobs that I cant list
or edit using crontab -e or -l on multiple systems
moriah ~ # crontab -e
Cant believe I am the only one who has this - 3 systems I have checked
so far are all the same - root cant access its crontab. Ive tried
