/cut

I'm not at the computer, but I am sure that I don't get to see that option. I believe the kernels to boot into comes up before the encription password. Given this, I will give it a try when I have it.

I don't bring it with me anymore as it is hard to navigate without X. I do like the idea as I learn to navigate in text given that it is extremely challenging being so used to X, but it becomes rather useless since I forget much because of disuse.

Something someone in Development ought to create is the ability to multitask in the text environment.

Thanks for the tips,
