I tried to forestall that question by saying "But sometimes for instance I replace a machine ...." I guess I should have made the thought more conspicuous -- and maybe also mentioned that I sometimes bollix a machine up so badly that a fresh install is the easier or the only alternative. Last week, for instance, I managed to so foo a brand new laptop that anything I did on the login screen killed it. (I'd've tried a repair if I'd been able to remember how to boot straight into single user, or find out again how. I spent a few days trying, and then just put the install disc back into it. <sigh>) -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
