FELT is the word here You really ought to install 2.2.2. You should find it faster due to change in the VM part. It runs faster and, generally more important, smoother. I think OpenLinux is more modern and the Linux VM is getting better these days so it would be fairer to compare with 2.2.*. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: There are no limits -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 3.0-CURRENT #35: Sun Sep 21 19:28:07 CEST 1997
