In all the years I have used linux (more than a decade) I always used shutdown to... to turn off the computer (I would say "to shutdown"... but that would be too funny here). Debian has poweroff too.

But I think that UML should be also aimed at users without much knowledge in kernel compilation because sometimes we could just want a virtual and easy, although safe, "root power". The reason why I'm trying to get UML to work right now is one of these cases. -- Balaco -- http://www.fastmail.com - Same, same, but different... -- ___ User-mode-linux-user mailing list User-mode-linux-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/user-mode-linux-user

I would never bet that it was that old. I can update it. And I also have a little bit of web design knowledge and practices that may be eventually useful. On the other hand, I would need directions and thumbs up to guarantee that the contents are kept correct (which would be my main objetive when changing texts). I have not programmed that much kernel code and "related or almost so" things, although I have a solid C background - and this is something that UML seems to have a broad contact surface, from the messages I have read here. At most a month of medium site changes are good as expectations? Although most of the time I can give a few hours per week, so that month should not look too bad. What would be the process?
