Re: Questions about lessdisk

[sthierry@free.fr]

Thank you very much Jonas for this procedure
but I don't understand it, could you give me more explanations ?
or we could perharps meet on irc on #debian-edu channel ...

Do you perharps have an example of the syntax for the files in
/etc/lessdisks/terminals/ ?

Thanks
Thierry
