Does it serve any real purpose (other than so Doze users can collect

That argument is total horse [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Would you like to edit a text file without an editor???
Either way you need tools to do the work, this idea that you can't assemble
a binary file to be easy to human correct in the event of partial
corruption is crap. It just needs good design.
If you chose an ASN.1 or equivalent data format you could edit it with the
tools from openssl.. I hate windows registry because the tool they made
to edit/correct it was an afterthought. Just because Doze screwed it up
doesn't mean that the system is inherently flawed.

windows because a particular TI development environment was doze only and
within 15min I was bangin my head against a wall.
I have been on linux since it came on 16 floppys, so anyone who wants to
You heretic me can kiss
Does anyone know if the kernel on potato has been patched to support
reiserfs? but the real question is how do I make my own bootable debian
installs if they don't, and/or I have a new kernel driver I want to be
able to install?

Once apon a time we were talking about things that were not 10 times more
painful than using reg-edit
I thought that was the line in the sand and we had agreed to not go below
that...
OK then, the least OS in the world, MSDOS 3.1 you could edit binary
using debug so there
And I bet there
Sexier merchandising =8-)... Sorry

Subject: Re: Debian vs. Red Hat
I was using FreeBSD for ISP's but found that the linux kernel had better
support for the hardware that was comming in.. We installed debian and
redhat and slackware to replace it but gradually phased out he other
linuxes because debian is better. It has a more intelligent layout and
better
