First :it was joke .
Second : Not allways ,if you have an fddi and not so fast local disk ,
the swap server may be good idea :-) .
BTW .All this discussion is completely off-topic ,so to make it on-tpic
2 questions :
1 .Is somebody know something about new slackware ?
I heard tht it named "Slackwae 1996" (not so good idea ) and will
haave 2.0 kernel and all the new stuff (i.e libs ,etc ... ) .
So any information will be welcome .
2. When I do reboot (i.e writing reboot" ) to my Linux box
( P-90 16 Mb ,850+1.3 G IDE disks )
It hangs but not reboots ,ani ideas ?
Meir .
