*raises hand* Before it blew up, my old NSLU2 (a 266MHz ARM with 32MB RAM) used to take 15-20 minutes to run update-initramfs. As the configure stage for packages requires coddling, since many packages want user intervention, I couldn't even let it run overnight --- I had to sit and stare at it while it ran. Multiple update-initramfs calls made me feel practically homicidal. -- ┌─── ｄｇ＠ｃｏｗｌａｒｋ．ｃｏｍ ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ "I have always wished for my computer to be as easy to use as my │ telephone; my wish has come true because I can no longer figure out │ how to use my telephone." --- Bjarne Stroustrup
