Re: PS/VaulePoint Problem--Can't install.
I would just like to thank you an extreme amount. I have had this problem
for a while now on this one machine. Initially I attempted to build my
own kernel, but failed. With the aid of your kernel I was able to begin
the process of installing the Debian. Thank you, thank you and thank you.
Also a thank you to all that replied to my humble request.
Forever in your debt,
Cap'n Fred...is very happy.
