Well, it gave me issues then and I couldn't boot. Even WITH dracut, if |
| 26 |
the init thingy failed, I wouldn't have a clue how to fix the stupid |
| 27 |
thing even today. Also, why use one when I don't need one? My plan, |
| 28 |
stay away from it for as long as possible. When the day comes that I |
| 29 |
have to have one, find something that installs faster. Crap, that |
| 30 |
sounds like winders don't it? |
