How "messed up"? IOW, what if you just started paring away packages, aggressively making it as *minimal* as possible while still being able to run ssh. (From experience, I can tell you that that's pretty darned small.) Then, start adding back packages as you see fit. - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Is "common sense" really valid?
