Well, I don't subscribe to the NeXT groups so I missed some of the
discussion, but the above seems to intimate that I am incapable of
loading and using Linux. Since kernel hacking is what I do for a
living, I hate to have people think that this is true. I do, in
fact, have and use Linux. OTOH, nobody is going to take away my
God-given right to bitch about any OS I want. What I originally
intended was to show the huge difference between something that
loads first time, every time, no sweat; and Unix. That said,
thanks to everyone who showed concern and offered help with
my Linux. I do have one or two complaints, but I will post them
to c.o.l. when I am completely clueless. Thanks again.
