I like the current prompt, the little bit of information it displays makes it easy to know where you are in the fileystem, but the build environment setup doesnt have that, so it's not any loss long term to change it to the BLFS prompt was what I was saying. While I'm a minimalist, for me that is no extra software that I don't use, more than don't make the software used as user friendly as possible. Though I also do not use features that are just "eye candy" like the fancy features in KDE and GNOME. Animated menus just don't serve any purpose for me. :) Jaqui -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/livecd FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
