- I am not shure whether this is a bug or just my fault, but it happened
- shortly after a friend of my reported the same problem.
-
- He downloaded the sls-package in his directory /root/incoming, while
- doing this he added a user with adduser, then deleted it again.
-
- After some time letting the system running the files simply where not there
- anymore!
-
- He was very frustrated, phoned me up to tell me, and we had no clue why.
-
- Then after I downloaded some things, I found some files I where shure not to
- have deleted where gone too.
-
- I panicked, and downloaded the source for 0.99p4 onto a msdos-fs, and the
- compiling went fine - I am not shure whether this all had anything todo with
- the kernel, but I am wondering because of the two incidents...
-
- Anyone had any experiences of this kind?
-
