As I'm dumb too, I'm all for it. However, I wonder if it wouln't be a better idea to merge the "Quick start" and your "Even quicker start...". Also, I would use /bin/sh instead of /bin/ksh for the scripts. While here, could you add RCS Id to the README.OpenBSD file. If this eventually gets commited, it also needs a package bump. Anyway, I like the idea :) Cheers! > On Wed, Dec 24, 2008 at 11:47:23AM -0600, Marco Peereboom wrote: > > I always spend 30 minutes re-figuring out how to get qemu running.
