There already is a way to do this. I cannot remember where I the acually article was written, but I read a debianplanet.org news item that pointed to an article about how to use knoppix as an install cd. I've tried it and it worked pretty good. I was going to track the URL of the article down for you but debinaplanet.org is not loading right now??? Anyway, drop by debian planet and one of the news items on the front page points to the article.
Slashdot knows nothing???
Have you ever read the FAQ!
---------
How do you verify the accuracy of Slashdot stories?
We don't. You do.:) If something seems outrageous, we might look for some corroboration, but as a rule, we regard this as the responsibility of the submitter and the audience. This is why it's important to read comments. You might find something that refutes, or supports, the story in the main.
-------------
So slashdot is not just the story, it all the comments! Many people before your comment said the say thing and got moded up. So the story got told right, unless you're clueless.
So by posting, *YOU* are part of Slashdot.

"So if government control is out, and private control is out? What's left?"
Hell, I think that's a valid question. I got my ideas, but more importantly,... when we change something it should be for the better!
I think government are horrible instatutions, even the local one. Hell, maybe they're worse, but I live in New Orleans so I might have a biased. The point I was trying to make is that to simple say a system is bad means nothing unless you provide a better alternitive. I think government control over public resorces is better than corperate control. Though I don't think those are the only options.
Your examples are interesting, I worked for many bosses that get away with all sorts of illegal stuff all the time. I've worked at Pat O'Brian's http://www.patobriens.com/ that violated every health code and labor law that I could think of. If your ever my town, go check thier garnish bucket on the patio bar! I'll skip how they clean the glasses. In the mean time, our ex-govener Edwards might be facing jail time for some of the BS he did in office.

I think the CNT/FAI in Barsalona during the Spanish civil war in 1936 had a much better system. Basicily added democracy to the workplace. Industral leaders were picked by the workers. Pretty increable stuff, but besides the point of this conversation. George Orwell wrote a book about his involvment called "Homage to Catalonia"
I'm all for striping the power away from the government, but who are you going to give it to.
"We will privatize utilities..."
Meaning take invaluable public resources from an institution with weak democratic control (i.e. local government) and give it to an institution that has no democratic control (i.e. corporations).
Oh, I know, I know... "Consumers get a voice by what they buy." BULLSH*T! Boycotts almost never work. (A few exceptions.) It's simple game theory. Really something like privatization you don't have to use guess work theory, just look at how well Central America has don't when they given up their public resources to private control. Prices went up, service went down. Profits go up though, so that's something.
How can you call yourself a "libertarian" when you don't oppose master and servant relationships at the workplace anyway? I know, I know... Workers are free to starve on the streets are choice from a list of masters. (I picked-up the word master from Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations. It what he called people how used wage labor.)

PS - I promised myself I would avoiding debating with "Libertarians" in attempt to avoid the 26 page response to a few lines. I guess I'm a glutton for punishment.:(
errrr, both raid 0, and 5 *CAN* boot performance.
If fact that's about all raid 0 is used for is booting performance. Raid 5 for both performance and redundany.
"Just because you read Slashdot doesn't mean you have any idea what you're talking about!"
Indeed!
I really cannot believe that people feel strongily about this. I wouldn't even have remembered that gnome2 does that if it wasn't point out.
The computer world is fast changing, IMHO, something like this should be invisible.
