1) I thought of that, but what password does Portage give it (if any)? |
| 20 |
If I change it, will it affect the use of my system at all? |
| 21 |
2) Never used strace. I was under the impression that it was a |
| 22 |
debugger, and I don't know enough about programming to be able to |
| 23 |
understand that. But looking into it now, it appears it may be used |
| 24 |
more simply to give a better idea of what's going on. I'll give it a try. |
| 25 |
3) I'll have a look at http replicator, thanks. |
