Time is getting short.  I just figured out how to copy everything to the
Windows XP partition (updating the paths) and using the Windows version
of IREX as the transfer agent.  Once we get settled in at Georgia, and I
have more time to play with it, I still want to move the setup to Linux.

I will for now, but in a slightly different way.  My OS/2 machine is one
that will be packed up in a couple of weeks as well as my wife's W95osr2
machine and my main Fedora Core 5 machine.  I will be left with just
this laptop, and right now, both modem and wireless are being a pain in
the neck to get configured. (works well in XP, but not well in FC5 since
I reinstalled. :(  I am burning an Ubuntu DVD to test as I type this.

 BP> if you realy do, make your expirence into a faq

Unfortunately, I had hoped to take advantage of someone else's learning
experience.  It will have to wait until after the move.

 BP> i have not seen anyone run husky as a point setup :(

Well, I will keep looking.  Thanks.


TTYL,
