I did an init 3 and left the thing alone and it's still running - really
does look like XFree4! I'll try a manual installation of 3.3.6 and see
what happens (but like I said, it *was* running a (June ish) Xfree4
under 7.1 fine).

to the
installer, the video was messed up (the image on the LCD was broken and
rolling). I guess this should have warned me :-).
Overall, the 7.2 installer is a big improvement on the previous
incarnations (have done 6 machines so far with it).
Thanks again,

fork(2) makes an _entire_ copy of the parent - data elements and all.
This is very inconvenient for things that use alot of memory.
For things like daemons and whatnot the general practice is to fork the
children before the data space is allocated. If you need to share the

this will be a quick (and really, really dirty) way to do it. If

To add some perspective to this bug report. I had the same
thing happen 3 times. Today I figured out how bad it really was.
The other times I was testing some really alpha code and
didn't care. RiserFS encourages you to reboot casually ( Memo to
