Makes sense. How do I do that? I'm a little dense here: how would I do that? Is there some special command? Do I copy the thing and rename it? Do I do the funky Gentoo dance and burn a sacrificial hard drive to the gods of the IBM DeathStar hard drives and hope it'll work in a week? Just kidding about that last one, but I'm know where you're going, just not how to get there ; ) Thanks for your help, by the way - wouldn't have gotten past the funky Gentoo dance w/o you : ) -- http://lordsauronthegreat.googlepages.com/
