OTB, sorry to hear. I much enjoyed your videos. I myself in the process of clearing out some Stage 2 cancer interlopers. In my case, prognosis looks good. You will be missed.

My thoughts are with you and your family. On video you come across as a very kind and knowledgeable person! I believe your videos will be useful for years to come! If Slackware moves to Grub, I'll definitely will be watching your videos on Grub because I have no clue on how it works! This will sound odd, but I hope someday you'll visit me in my dreams to say hello!

Thanks and Thoughts.

Your walk-through instructions to get an efi partition for Slackware are the clearest.

Good luck with your troubles OTB.
I lost my father to a lymphoma some years ago and i too had to struggle for a bit.
I hope you manage to get relief from the pain.

Hoping for a full recovery for you, OTB. Your videos, not just on Slackware, are the best on the internet. Nowt flashy, just someone who knows what he's talking about, and how to put it over to others.
