Ha! I haven't done that in years either! But, I just did it last week.
Goes to show, being 60 and an independent voter didn't make me bullet
proof. Just one eenie weenie slip... BANG! Dead /usr/sbin. I finally had
to re-install. The really fun part was that I gave my newest install DVD
to a friend, about 100 miles away and had to recover using a Karmic CD.
I'll never use a CD again. Having all the files on a DVD is far far
better and really worth the $8 from On-Disk to just purchase it and be
done with it. Someone send me another t-shirt! :) Ric
