Hi all,
now I'm sure this will be resolved real soon, but I'm going a way on holiday
next week and I *really* need to know that my users can see their floppy and
cdrom icons, and their background while I'm away (and they aren't too
familiar with the UN*X file system!).
I believe that this
Hi,
when removing kernels using RPM, where there is no LILO entry (commented out
for example), I get:
not removing entry, entry doesn't exists -- the 's' at the end is very
wrong in English.
Should be:
Not removing LILO entry as it doesn't exist!
or something like it.
Ciao,
Paul.

I've mentioned this before, but it hasn't fixed itself with the past few

According to what I understand, Warly is reporting that Mandrake Linux 9.1

Quite frankly, Mandrake 9.1 has
