3 Oops, I tried to use it before (to know what it did -exactly-), but had
4 problems, thought it wasn't implemented completely :S.

19 Ok, then what if you *warned the user, and advised to run catalyst -a -f ..
20 afterwards? It would still help, I haven't figured how to chroot well yet
21 (using linux for less then a year now), but even if I did two things would
22 make a difference: for testing purposes it would help to have the exact
23 setup catalyst uses; the second is only because it's so simple ;)

27 Did I? Must've been because of a mistake in my last two mail's, they
28 shouldn't have gotten here too, sorry!
