rm is picky
here is a good reason why rm is picky about what it will do and why you should leave it that way. I was playing around and needed a file from a diferent libc so I went and found one and stuck it in /usr/lib. The install still did not work so I abandoned it and went looking for someting else. I sorta forgot about the libc.so.6 file. A few hours later and KDE was acting a bit lame so I restarted it. The monitor went click...click...lots..then INIT: Id x respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes. Not good. rebooted. same thing. power off. get a glass of coke. power up. same thing. not good. hit the space bar and logged in to init 3 and started poking around. Not long and I remembered that damned libc.so.6 file. I will remove it. started typing in the command and just as I got rm typed the five minutes was up and the damn thing tried to init KDM and flunked again. but a real ugly message also was there... rm: '/' is a directory well knock me out. ___ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc - http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users

Re: Viewing mac files
I dunno, i think you might be out of luck on this one. Macs do things quite differently. A file is really two things in the filesystem, a resource fork, and a data fork. Unless you have both, you can't do anything. However, binhexing makes the two forks portable, kinda like a tarball. BUt unfortunately, you need the HFS filesystem in order to merge the two forks and do anything with them.
