I would be more than happy to write this once I get my machine booted.
I've put off volunteering for this, however, because several others
have promised to do such a thing but havent. So, I thought I would
wait until I got up. :) Since I'm not a programmer, this would make
me feel like I've contributed at least a little something to the project.
:)
I'm going home soon to try booting the latest miniroot, you'll be hearing
from me soon. :D
