Hi
I just dont think that icluding the dev was the foult becouse i did the same
thing with 3 other almost the same computers.
-d = what periods it suppose to remove ?i didnt understood this flag,
explain please.
-L= if i do ls -la in the cdrom home/user directory i see lots of .XXXX
files, so i dont need this either.
-i = all my long files like pkcs12-prog-053b-tar-gz.bin looks and feel the
same.
-R=exist in my command
-T = do i need it if it will serve only linux systems
