OK, so now instead of reading "some" we will read "nothing."

 

After you have done something 20 times you do not need a 3000 page
manual, you need something "quick."

 

I vote to keep them.

Because there's only so much you can put on one page and have it remain 
legible, the Quick Guides are going away.  As this illustrates, they
have 
outlived their usefulness and now pose a clear and present danger to 
society.  (Please don't leave a copy of a Quick Install Guide in a crib
- 
choking hazard.)

 

BOO!

 

HISS!!!

 

I will *read* a one page guide.  Although I will apparently SKIP WHOLE
STEPS, like INSTVM DVD.

 

a 300 page manual?

 

Not so much.

 

So, any idea why the DOSINST and CMSDOS segments didn't want to rebuild
(I stupidly had CF1 accessed and was screwing around with SYSTEM CONFIG
while PUT2PROD was running, so I had to rebuild CMS and all the segments
the old-fashioned way)?  I seem to recall this failing before sometime.
I don't think I've ever actually used those segments, so I doubt it
matters.
