Subject: Re: Help with reformatted hd
One of the florida sites has it in ftp and I got in
finally (I think it was a fl. university, not sure.
Md5's checked okay, and burned copy.

Thanks tho.

I, for some reason, cannot (probably too stupid) get
torrent to work. Even on installed o/s. Don't really
care as about the only huge things I d/l are iso's and
they usually are available on ftp or http sites.
Probably because of dual firewalls...guarddog and
qworst nat.

Used your mkfs script, still will NOT write to hd from
OO.o or kwrite on wife's machine.

Wife, a couple years ago, wouldn't let me install any
o/s, now somewhat receptive to the idea. Sooo. will
attempt to install knoppix beginner level, so it 'auto
detects hardware'.

Any 'true' install would need complete system, and as
I don't have transportation and she has a large
monitor, I, being a 'stuck at beginner' level person,
cannot bring all the 'junk' with me to an installfest.
About the only thing/place I could get to easily would
be the ASU IF. Even that would be a hassle with just
the box and keyboard/mouse on a bus/bike situation!!
Walking even short distances is very painful, but I
can NOT feel any 'unusual' pain (just, ah, the usual
pains) on a bike tho. People see me miles from home on
the bike and comment that IF I had as much pain as I
elude to walking I couldn't bike that far!! Well, I am
willing to trade backs!! Wish that was possible. Eyes
too!!!!

Sooooo, maybe she will let me install 3.8.1 at the
beginner level. I will first try it here tho it will
'break' my simplymepis grub!!

Cyclists should expect and demand safe
accommodation on our public roads,
just as does every other user.

Nothing more is expected.

Nothing less is acceptable!

Long live Knoppix!!
