And for the very real case where folks don't have physical access to the machine and a reboot is required, it would be nice to have a big warning to ensure that the machine will come up as desired (double and triple check the boot configuration). Any mistake in the boot configuration means one will have a dead machine. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 16:49:00 up 54 days, 16:22, 2 users, load average: 0.03, 0.03, 0.00 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
