If I reboot, I *may* loose the firewall completely, depending on what the |
14 |
drive does. The only safe thing is to build another firewall before |
15 |
rebooting the current firewall (then see if fsck will fix it)....... |

Either way, once I build a new firewall, I'm going to copy it |
18 |
to CF and be done with these old ide drives......... |
