Hi all, but Bret and Adam especially,
I have been reading the post on this subject and am really worried now about joining IRC and asking for help.
Like Peter I have also used PC/M, in fact I started with the very early Spectrums from Sir Clive. I have also talked people through (over amateur radio) editing Autoexec.bat and Config.sys files, sometimes over and over again.
Like many other users I am new to LINUX, not new to computers. Therefore I EXPECT to make mistakes, how else can I learn?
If I ask 'how do I edit this config file' I want you to tell me just that, not have me email it to you and you email the edited file back, how on earth can I learn anything from that? After all, if I wanted to put a plug on a new bit of coax I wouldn't send it to someone else to do for me! Maybe some would!!
Please, please, please treat me as a new LINUX user and not as a complete dork.
Regards
Peter
