    In sensible distros you can set it in yum.conf:
    installonly_limit=3
    Gives you one as a spare and one for a scare.

    I must have angels watching over me. Whatever the problem is that they're trying to solve by making the names look like line noise has never, ever, bothered me.

    Right, because "working" is 0% or 100%.

    Centos6: uuidd starts automatically, like I want.

  13. Me too. I think he's a horse's arse, but I can bullshit with the best of them and I while I really don't enjoy insulting people I'd be prepared to do it if it's tasteful and artistically necessary.

    I'd also chuck in a few subtle jibes that go over most of the crowd's heads. I've got quite a bit of experience in that.

  14. Unable to discharge yada yada. Is this meant to be like a Caine Mutiny scenario? That they think he's as fruity as a nutcake?

    Got a stable setup so it's been a while since I installed anything, but IIRC the DeadRat clan allow you to choose. To use a car analogy, there's several "set meals" (desktop, desktop with A/V shit, CLI only server etc) plus the option to pick & mix as you please.
