i was installing mandrake last night, and i accidentally installed it on the partition where i keep all my stuff - mp3z, progz, personal stuff, and seti.

looks like i'll be down for a day or so. :(

on a bright note, i am posting this from linux so at least i was able to get my modem online. ;)

I bought a new Western Digital HD a few weeks ago and made the mistake of moving 10 GB of MP3's onto it. The HD crashed in a week and I lost it all. :( And now that Napster s@cks, I may never get some of the music back! I still haven't gotten around to re-ripping the music from my own CD's yet - what a drag.

Only had positive experiences with linux lately. Configured apache, ncftpd, gatos(gotta love TV on a PC) and RC5 in 2 hours last night.... and it is all stable
