Subj : Synchronet issues To : apam From : Spectre Date : Thu Oct 27 2022 21:29:00 ap> I expect you didn't bother to investigate what really happened, and just ap> assumed it was synchronet as that is what you happened to be doing at the ap> time. At no time in my history using any flavour of linux have I ever seen a result as occurred while playing with Synch. You're right in that none of the subsequent repairs really inolved close scrutiny as to why what happened happened. My main concern was to get the thing bootable again given it was entirely non-functional. I did suck in a second tarball just in case, but that was the extent of trouble shooting. For my relative skill level, and knowing if the same happened again I knew how to effect repairs with a minimum of hassle that was it. It could be something with the particular tarball I acquired from at this point now places unknown. It could be something odd to my system, but if its odd to mine, could it not also be odd to someone elses? Just it's in the minority. I really don't know, and don't care. As originally covered I gave it a go and it failed to meet expectations. Spec *** THE READER V4.50 [freeware] --- SuperBBS v1.17-3 (Eval) * Origin: Good Luck and drive offensively! (21:3/101) .
