Every now and then i think i'm saying something usefull :-), as i'm a bit out of practice (my last system was 6.1, btw, also the first system i made from the live CD, my first system was made on top of knoppix3.2 i believe, and all others were made on the ruins :-) of the previous LFS system, exept my last LFS, that was the live CD ) Best regards, Cedric > > Thanks in advance, > > No problem. > > Al -- The only stupid question is the one you don't ask -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-chat FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
