What an ab-so-fucking-lutely craptastic saga of pain and tears to find that answer too. The question? Baby Jesus wants to read his ntfs drives. That's all. It's not that world shaking a request I don't think. But you think I'd be having multiple orgasms for all the trouble it took me.

[EDIT: But NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, the fecking thing broke with the same "no aix module found" that the sources I d/l'ed from kernel.org did. Fucking shite.[1]

And while we're on the subject, just what in the fudge fucktory's manual o' fuckedness is the point of "Ok. Uncompressing linux"? Maybe I just haven't found that clue basket yet, but don't executables generally make pretty bad fodder for compression? And wouldn't compression just take time?

Also, wtf is the point of "redhat nash", other than making your boot take 10x as long?

And oh yeah, freebsd needs to support bigger fat32 drives, 'k?

/*Takes a half bottle of fuckitall and reboots into windows*/

[1] In contrast, getting openbsd to see my 200 gig fat32 partition (which freebsd chokes on as well!) was all of maybe 4 or 5 commands, including "mount". OpenBSD > *.

See, I just hate being told to give up the use of my machine for however long it'll take to build something. Not entirely of course, I can still play irc all weekend. But why should I, when there are other people with much better/faster/more hardware to it?

But with nice(1) (or renice(8)) you can continue to use your computer, but wait a week instead!

Oh, it's not that. It's leaving the system on the same OS all that time. There's a reason this box is named "sybil".
