Subject: Re: starting Sabotage project/booting off the hard drive
Thanks guys. I'll look at all of this. It'll take a few days to go over
all of this, as I can only do it between things in the office(I start
something compiling etc and then check it several hours later, the next day
etc)
I'll probably try a couple of these approaches to understand what's going
on here. I'm already learning more about what actually goes on in a Linux
OS just getting this working than more pre-packaged/slick distros where
I've become basically a quirks expert.
Thanks again,
Will
