Note: I personally run 13 jails on the laptop from which I am currently typing this. I do *not* use seperate partitions or vnconfig'ed devices; on the other hand, I don't have quota enforecement issues. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
