Greetings; While logged in the emc box from here, installing and checking the python code extensions that someone just posted a howto link for, I note 2 problems.
emc-2.2.4 1. Except for counterbore.py, the rest of them do not write a % sign to the end, and therefore emc errors when attempting to load them (or I don't know how to properly save the code to emc), even if you scroll to the end of the displayed code and add it. emc also reports it can't load /tmp/so-and-so too, so it may be PEBKAC or perms. However, in the process of coding up a more complex part, I can see where they can be very helpfull by making use of the clipboard save & pasting that into the middle of one's in-progress programing effort. Kewl, and thank you. 2. Last winter, (over a year ago now) when I had to re-install over that root account fiasco (yeah, dumb wasn't it) I used the LiveCD version assuming it would just overwrite what was on the existing partitions. I don't think I had even been curious enough to run the df command since, but did just now. The liveCD version used /dev/hda5, which was the then current / partition, for everything but swap, all the rest of the partitions except the swap on that drive are now mounted on /media/hda1 (hda2 etc) and contain only a lost + found directory. Its a 60GB drive, with /dev/hda5 a 46GB partition, and its only 12% used, so its not now nor probably ever will be a problem, but its an oddity nonetheless. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
