Decommissioning my first Linux box

On startup:

/dev/hdg1 has gone 243 days without being checked; check forced.

I originally installed Libranet 2.8.1 and used it for several years, adding Win4Lin to access Windows 98SE.

$uname -a:

Linux lpooh 2.4.29 #9 Tue Apr 26 06:15:08 PDT 2005 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux

First problem: apparently my new mouse is not compatible with Libranet, so every time I move it, windows and menus act crazy - just moving it around apparently logged me out. Remote login it is, then.

Remember, rcp -pr is your friend - preserve those datetime stamps, and get the directory recursively!

If I read the root directory properly, I installed Libranet on 2003-08-19.

As of the third of June, two thousand six, lpooh shut down for the last time. A moment of silence, please (ignore the fan's whine).
