| Duh, just realised what a dumb question my last one was. Of course, Linux
| is running just fine. It's just waiting for a command from me and since I
| don't know any UNIX commands as yet, I don't know what to tell it to do.
Do you know how wonderful this thread of conversation feels to read? ;}
Since I joined this list back in May, it's been strange... I have felt like
the only newbie in the room. ;} I -know- that everyone started somewhere,
and have gone through the same trial and error process, asking questions,
getting to know their fields, whether it is web design, web consulting, web
programming, or web marketing... though I have visions of George, Michael
Stone, and Javilk being "born" an expert, like Athena being born whole from
Zeus's skull... ;}
People asking the -same- questions that I am asking now?? Stupendous!
Franko being mystifyed for a few seconds, like -I- was last week, with the
arcane [root] message, not realizing, as I did at first, that it was just a
prompt for Linux? Outrageous!! ... in a good way, that is. ;}
Hey, this could be sort of a WCA "Linux study session" ;} The reason why I
am trying to understand it is that, Unix is where it all started, and since
I wish to bill myself as a "web consultant", might as well try to tackle
this OS...
Thank you Mike for all the oodles of information! Whew! Just what I needed!
