[linrad] Re: Linux Strikes Again

I had no expectation that you wanted to put things on HD.  You had indicated a problem when typing 'sudo'.  Although that was due to an incorrect file name being typed after 'sudo', I took the opportunity to explain a bit to the list about sudo in case others were thinking of using it.  I did this because of responses to the list about your email.

Things will never 'go away' when you reboot with a hard disk install.  To keep them from doing so with CD boot you need to proceed as previously outlined in terms of saving configuration and disk image.

You need to uncomment both 'vesa' and 'vesatext'.
