Ok my beef (well it was only supposed to be a comment - I'm not steaming at
the ears) was that the elkcmd package should really be transportable across
all platforms. (I acknowledge that is basically PC at present but with talk
about other platforms we should try to be versatile).

I believe the meta device drive should enable device drivers in user space,
or maybe we could make use of loadable modules and unload it quickly.

How does the kernel/file system handle 'file dates' when creating/modifying
files?

RE: UTMP problems I think I've found MY mistake, the 'login' code has a
compile option for utmp (which I've left in by mistake) but bombs out big
time(i.e. no login) if the utent.c stuff returns NULL - which it does if the
file doesn't exist. I'll try recompiling it..... (it just that
re-programming the Flash SSD takes so long :-( ).
