That is what I have been doing the last couple weeks, cleaning up a |
| 32 |
bit. If it was not for all the compiling and all, I would just start |
| 33 |
from scratch. I have a current snapshot and all the distfiles anyway. |
| 34 |
I just hate to do it. It sounds to much like winders to me. |

I usually back up the whole /etc directory. That saved me when my |
| 37 |
inittab files got blanked somehow. It wouldn't boot without it for some |
| 38 |
reason. No clue why. LOL That was my humor OK. |

I'll make a back-up after the current merge gets done and slide them out |
| 41 |
the door. The ones in config-archive are from using dispatch-conf |
| 42 |
thing. I generally use etc-update though. To old for new tricks. O_O |
