Now I understand. ... % Another method that should work is copying the registry to paper tape % and using hole punches and white out to make whatever changes you want. Silly Christopher... You should know that Scotch tape is much more flexible than crusted white-out! I like the idea, though; it gives you a physical backup of your mount table so that you can restore it when the registry gets corrupted. Do you have a tape reader that reads the sheet-feed sides of dot-matrix fan paper? I have a bunch of that lying around and it seems awfully suited to binary anyway ;-) HAND :-D --=20 David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) davidtg@justpickone.org * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) davidtgwork@justpickone.org http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg! --HeFlAV5LIbMFYYuh Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline Content-length: 189 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE84WGmGb7uCXufRwARAsjCAKCxBGOgwVDuYBXxfSpJPbQ9LKn6GACfScqu P7fn3MVoI4+8D0Ndgwfk33I= =1upi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --HeFlAV5LIbMFYYuh--
