I just told grml to ship it with the next release so we both get what you requested for and what I forgot to request from /dev/brain. :) [x] integrated yeahconsole in grml regards, -mika- -- http://grml.org/ # Linux for texttool-users and sysadmins http://wiki.grml.org/ # share your knowledge http://grml.supersized.org/ # the grml development weblog #grml @ irc.freenode.org # meet us on irc
