Re: small linux distro

["Ophidian" <ophidian_snake@hotmail.com>]

the problem with that was having 2 volumes named sys

it didnt like it at all

i finally managed to rename the bad sys volume to sys2 (finally got it to
run nwconfig, it was being a bitch so thats why i went off in search of a
small linux distro to mount it and retrieve it)

then booting up with a new sys volume worked so i could mount vol1 and map
it from a workstation
