Hi,
I seem to remember if you use DEMAND dialing you shouldn't use PERSIST
and vice versa - one or the other only. Seems logical if you think about
it.. Personally I use demand with an idle set for 10 minutes so that my ppp
is dropped if I don't access the network for 10 minutes at a time.
Ever since I installed Debian, I have to hard boot
at least 3 times a day, because X windows crashes and hangs the machine. This
usually happens when the system is busy installing programs, or doing some other
resource consuming job in one of the virtual consoles (X itself included), and I

I'd like to install woody on a machine woth a Compaq Smart Arry 5312
storage controller, but booting with kernel bf24 doesnt recognise the

mount the redhat / (or /boot if its a seperate partition) on
