One warning though.....

I also decided to clean up those core files that build up around the file
system (especially when you couldn't get Linux Quake to run). Well, I ended
up deleteing the core file in /usr/src/linux/net, whiich is needed to
recompile your kernel.

It's easy enough to grab a new copy off of your distribution media, but
I wouldn't have had to if I was more careful.
