Re: [newbie] Basic question re startup scripts

[=?x-unknown?q?Pe=F1a_Arellano_Fabian_Erasmo?=]

        Hello Henryk,

        I don't the answer either. But looking at the "From Power Up To

        http://www.netspace.net.au/~gok/power2bash/

        Let me know if this was useful for your porpouses. Greetings from
Mexico.

        Fabian.
