    The machine that I was having problems with is now in production running White Box Enterprise Linux - I didn't want to build a custom kernel. I'm not really looking for a fix for this particular moment in time, but thinking about a year or two from now when Sarge's kernel is getting long in the tooth.

    But how is one supposed to take them seriously when their "installing UserLinux" section is actually a link to goat.cx?

    If you don't believe me, go here and click "See installing UserLinux"
