Exactly what does this entail? Seeing as a good number of files in the /etc directory are of great importance, I am curious about what wouldn't be restored to that directory that I would need to do manually. Second, in the SNAP release, there are 2 boot floppies -- boot.flp and boot4.flp. What's the diff between them, if any? Thanks. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Benjamin Tomhave | Shell to DOS...Come in DOS...Do you Copy?
