They could make it into a tv series. 5 goals per episode, with a backstory. 50 episodes

Great idea!!

Really? I watched 300. It doesn't show.

i hope your travel plans aren't affected tahir

Unfortunately it has effected it. I just hope I can still make something of it. I wish I was leaving tomorrow because who knows what's going to happen tomorrow. If anything happens in Lahore in the next 10 days the whole trip might be in jeopardy.

I thought I'll take a little nap... fell asleep for 4 hrs instead... Now I'll have to have toast for dinner, as there's nothing else at home and all restaurants are closed at this hour...

none that I can think off. pull the trigger

Off we go with Vista.

Is there any smart way to remove the Vista logo without leaving scratches on the computer?

Actually, not that I know of. My Toshiba still has it. The problem is that the glue they use is very nasty, so once you remove the sticker the surface remains sticky umpkin:

Ok, now do something useful and suggest me a nice partition table for a 140 GB hard drive.

On my old laptop I removed the XP logo successfully but I am afraid to make any scratches on the new one.

I use about 25gb for /, size of RAM for swap, the rest for general purpose storage or space to use for experimenting with other distros/OSs/store vmware images/whatever.

No need for /boot ?

250 pounds I guess. Well with this price you can't get a DSLR. Then it doesn't get much of a difference when it comes to a point and shoot but I'd still go with a Nikon.

 

[Luca]

right, how much would a nikon cost approx?

 

[Martin]

Nah, not even with gentoo imo

 

[JCK]

Do you recommend /home on a separate partition?

I don't do that, as I prefer to allocate one big chunk of space and not plan how much to use for what. My ~ is 4.4gb out of the 25gb of / at the moment. But then I store large files on the other big slice of the disk that doesn't have any special purpose.

I read somewhere that having a /home on a separate partition is good to keep your settings and the likes where you can install the system on / as many times as you want.

I think I will go on like this:

/dev/sda1 2GB swap
/dev/sda2 10GB /
/dev/sda3 15GB /home
/dev/sda4 122GB /files

What do you think?

If I don't like it in the future, can I just merge / and /home into one 25GB / ?

Practicing my evil laugh. Muahahahahaha!:evil:

You can get the Nikon Coolpix P80 for around 220 BP. It is within your budget and it's a decent camera.

Don't know. Por que?
