ferret, First, with a nick like 'ferret' why do I trust you?
Second, OK, proceeding at my own risk, I... apt-get install file-rc Now yes, there suddenly exists a file called... /etc/runlevel.conf There wasn't before. I checked. I am not that trusting, especially of self-proclaimed ferrets. I read the file. I find all the symlinks I have previously set up represented there. So far so good. This could be useful. But, ferret, why am I strongly tempted never to reboot? Could it be your nick? ferret, may I suggest 'gerbil', perhaps? 'racoon'? Or are they already taken? I know for a fact that 'beaver' is already spoken for. And linx-chicks are so nick-protective. I think it's because of the Spandex. 'gecko' has a nice ring to it. montefin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > On Sat, 29 Jul 2000, Ethan Benson wrote: > > > On Sat, Jul 29, 2000 at 05:16:55PM -0700, John L. Fjellstad wrote: > > > > 4.
