I notice you're a huge fan of the whole running-many-distros thing - octo-boot, huh? Just out of curiosity, do you really use all eight enough to make it worth the hard drive space and what is no doubt a crowded partition table?
Actually, they all live on one 4gb usb
most of the time
all hand installed 'cept Fed11
I did Fed11 liveusb-creator off livecd
then hand-installed everything else
Then, and this is cool
I took everything off 4gb usb and re-installed Fed11 and made 3.2gb persistent thingy
and then transported it to ext3 hd partition
and set it up like it 's from usb!
so, I need a bigger stick to make bigger persistent thing
this way, i don't need ext4 type ot /boot folder in hd
Debian Live freaks out if you try persistence off usb with ext4 type on hd?
Haha, that's quite a lot. Don't you think you should settle on a main one, though? I'm all for trying everything, but there's a reason you don't own eight cars.
And back on topic, I have no idea what distro we are discussing right now, but did you install wine through yum/apt-get/etc. or from source?
Agreed. That said, there are so many people who can't be bothered to Google up their own damn answers that I don't mind one guy who's spending that much time finding his own.
