Hi Civilme,
Thanks for the reply.
well first of all, if you can split ide drives to one per channel, that would
be more efficient. ONly one device per channel on IDE may be active, and two
disks on the same channel really slows down disk-to-disk operations
ok, I will give this a go soon.

as an addendum to the below, if you're not that familiar with scsi remember
that you won't get the full use of u160 or above bandwith if you use a scsi

hey tom,
greg is referring to the practice of taking an install disk for an os or prog
and also the subsequent updates for said os/prog and combining them so that
one creates an install disk that installs the os/prog with the updates
already applied, when service pack 1 for winxp came out there
So is no-one else having this problem? I now have a second machine with

has been loaded for a while, and just recently broke. Both with an msec

Well, I had this problem, too. I was able to resolve it by first updateing
openssh-* to the latest version, and then going to the gFTP site and

That's strange, I have just the opposite experience.
Agreeing with you that 7.2 was an exceptionally good release (and can
hardly wait for 9.2 - it's the odd numbers I bet) I found that 8.2 and
higher gave much better performance on low end P166's.
AFAIK this was mostly due to Xfree4.2 on
