Two things:
1. I think getting on of the old 4G disks from afs
to attach to u6 for development coding is a good thing
and should happen. Garry?
2. Does anyone know how big the external u6 drive was?
If it's big enough I'd like to attach it to cj on a
temporary basis while I experiment with 4.2 -> 5.2
upgrade paths. I'm rewriting ilinux-athena and if I can
find an upgrade path that seems likely to work (aside from
just reinstall) I'd like to document it. An external disk
will allow me to mirror what currently on cj and make sure
that the machine is always in a state where it is usable
when I'm not playing with it. (ie: copy drive, play with
other drive, give up, copy drive back, etc)
Thoughts? Comments? Objections?
