I'm not sure I have time to figure it all out myself ( otherwise I'd probably be running Linux too)--is there a step-by-step guide out there somewhere for newbies like me and the guy complaining in the suggestion box? >>Oh, yeah, and will R1 include some of the features of OT offshoots >>like that one that mounts FAT partitions really quickly and that .* >>localized one? >> >OpenTracker might be added to the repository some day, but, what for? >and the fast mount is related to an updated dos filesystem which u can >find in bebits somewhere. Oh, so when it comes to distributing R1, it will be up to the distro companies to choose an OT brand? I hadn't thought of that. >Enjoy and welcome back :) Thanks again, Kev :)
