Installed Red Hat 7.3 on that scratch computer I put together the other day. (It’s a P266 with 128 megs RAM and an 8 gig hard drive.) I’m running fluxbox on it since Gnome is too slow (and I don’t even dare to try KDE 3 on it). The machine is mostly just a backup. I set it up as a DHCP server, since that’s how I wanted to network it to my laptop. dhcpd isn’t that hard to set up.

I’ve been cutting firewood for my family these past few days. It’s good to get some fresh air and physical exercise.

We signed up for AT&T Broadband today. They can’t come install it till May 18th, though. That still gives me three months of high-speed access before I leave on my mission.
