My machine has been off for about the last month,
I was installing a CD writer and my secondary hard driver controller
ide1 is scrambled, and it scrambled my hard drive.
Backups would have been nice but that's what the CD writer was for. . .
I'll be moving it up to newer kernels in the next while.
Together with some hard thinking about what I really want in the kernel
and what is really useful.
But I need to review 2.3.7 yet.
If you could explain (pseudo code maybe) what you are looking to
do in a little more detail it would certainly help motivate me. :)
Eric
