ah it's great so far
not a burp!

I installed Ponce's unofficial dvd
rebooted, picked a mirror for -current
upgraded all, installed a couple sbopkgs
which are great too.

seems to run faster than slack32...at least on this machine.

and I just finished making live kernel kit for slack64 too with 2.6.34!
but I gotta also finish the kit's for x86_64 arch and the new kits for
32 bit arch/slack, etc

I got lots of reading to do too!
Thank you all!
