In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII List-Id: The thread "Instructions for installing Slackware" is a lightning example how to ruin a mailing list by posting messages to all list members, messages which often would be better sent by email. So please use email when you want to communicate a message to a list member and that message isn't helpful/interesting for the Blinux crowd. Please read the Blinux FAQ which can be found at the Blinux Site at http://leb.net/blinux Enjoy! Hans (maintainer blinux-lists)
