Hey Al,

Looks like we've got a churchur linux posse in the making. Been in commercial unix/linux for most my working life, after converting from RSX11M/VMS in '84. Have been extolling the virtues of feisty to all who will listen, but having had the latest upgrade fail due to it deciding on a completely incorrect UUID for the root partition... easy enough to fix with the trusty knoppix dvd, but not possible to talk someone through on the phone!!!

Cheers,


Steve
