And in the meantime, every time wcarchive goes down, Walnut Creek's name get's slightly muddier. We were origionally waiting for 2.1 to come out, and be properly tested, etc, etc, before even thinking of touching wcarchive, but it spamming it's /dev/*sd* entries well enough so that we can't even re-mount the root filesystem read-write kinda forced our hands. Yes, it'll force a lot of obscure bugs into the open, but debugging wcarchive isn't easy as we don't normally have any console access... Gary
