- By now, I've gone through several Linux SLS installations, most of them
- troublesome, but lately they've gone quite well only because I have a
- specially prepared utilities disk running off my /dev/fd1 and offering
- just about any utility (including a customized sysinstall script) that
- might prove handy in an install emergency.
-
- Anyway, would it be possible for the administrators of the SLS package
- to include vi or even ed on the a2 disk? (And cram other stuff like dd
- in there if there is still room?) If things go wrong, it would be
- nice to have the option to go in and edit the sysinstall & doinstall
- scripts.
