Hi, All!
Janis advises that she's had a catasrophic system crash and is working to restore regular operations. It may take several days, but she is planning to return!!
Cheers... Dallas

Thank you for posting this Dallas; This 'latest' crash had to be the worst of all of the ones I've suffered this month! (Hey, stop laughing Nick Andre, I can hear you over here <grin>)

I really thought the cumulative effect of all the recent crashes would require a complete reinstall of Linux - so much so that I entertained the thought of switching to Windows (seriously!).

I REALLY thought this box was toast and was preparing to post PRISM's obituary when I emailed you & some others from my laptop!

I really had given up up, then my son arrived and sh__, the kid is good. He'd switched to Windows years ago, but he knows this system since it was his way back...

He worked on it for hours yesterday, and voila! We're back in business. I tell you, kids are a blessing <g>

Take care,
Janis

That's a horrific thought. XD

freebsd with gentoo portage is wonderfull, less mistakes

Glad to see you're back in business though!

Same here, quite the relief, that's for sure.
