Just think, you can now configure it by editing one simple config file-- not only that, but you actually get a 50 page document telling you how to do it! It's even so rash as to understandably describe some of the config files in /etc, how to lay out disks, and even how to do filesave. Imagine all the fun you're missing by not editing mysterious l.s and c.c files! And no more long long nights poring over the scavenged console sessions of departed wizards trying to figure out how to patch up munged file-systems-- fsck (& vmunix) do it all. Where's the justice in a world where others don't forever have to suffer the way we did? ------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
