I want to run the crash-me.sh file on my own machines, but I am wondering
what permanent damage it would do to the systems involved?
AFAIK no system files are affected by the copy action etc, but is this true?

I have two machines running 2.6.6, a Ultra 1 and a Netra T1.
Since a while the Ultra 1 has a 100MBit link and transferring quite large
amounts of FTP data hasn't crashed the system yet. It runs perfectly.

Anyway, if I can hook up my Netra T1 tonight I will run the crash-me.sh
file.

Regards,

Tom
