anybody have a quick and dirty boot disk? Or a cookbook for making one?
I have 40+ Pentium 75/90/100 machines that I have to inventory and prep for donation.
Some have CD-ROMs, many don't. Don't need X. Just need to boot to a prompt and get
general system info, or look at the BIOS.

I'm trying your suggestion, but I'm not familiar with what is implied between the

Thanks for the reply.
I think I'm making fundamental mistake in understanding the difference between a login
shell and non-login shell.
I found out that the ~/.bash_profile is read when, for example, I do the following:
C:\>ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
in .
While I'm not a newbie with Linux (mostly abuse Apache and Java on my box) I take a
lot of things for granted. One is how BASH works. It works most of the time.
In fact I'm a TCSH convert to BASH. In RHL 7.3 BASH is the default shell, hence my
conversion. But let me ask about the ~/.bash_profile
