Hi, Folks :)
Frigid here in NY !! Longest cold snap since 1890 -- looks like war on the horizon -- probably be pretty quick -- Saddam hottails it to Sudan -- or some such. Market should climb out of the present hole -- leaving the likes of us to CPR the global economy.
My big question of the day:
Will LinuxBIOS be able to support several IDE cards ?? I actually used to have a PCI IDE harddrive controller. These days one would by the 3ware (linux friendly) mirroring card.
For a consumer portal and home support system, this would be fantastic -- passing down the savings on 200GB disks that are only slightly more expensive than 20GB disks.

Ps, going to post this on my Linux Society mailing list. I will have a PostNuke site up pretty soon to support news dicussion on this and also server side topics.
Pps, Just for reference, my star product has been a cross compiling gcc which automated security compiles of various packages, tgz packaging and ssh tar-in/tar-out delivery systems where the only OS mods were links from /etc/ startup files to local /opt/<app-name>/etc files. I have hoped to make an independent product out of it, based on the highly dependable Devil-Linux.org. (DL is text only by design)
Hence my ingnorace in PC h/w issues ;) Will anybody be at LinuxWorld today at Javits ??
Sorry I just got back. But there is a 10 node LinuxBIOS cluster (configure to boot verbosely at 9600 baud instead of fast) in the LinuxNetworX display at the intel booth.
