Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] O.K thanx Just another question. I have a /boot partition and if I dd it onto a stiffy will it fit? My biggest problem here is it must go to a machine that had it's mbr overwritten by doze and I need to have a quick solution if it happenes again.So will it not freak out if I put it on another machine and it tries to boot compressed kernel wich is in boot? I actually found an answer and fixed it so this is of purely academical interest.
Cheers Stefaans
