Linux is already fun without games.

I'm going to jailbreak my phablet and see what happens.

I've read a lot of good, interesting posts. You should let him break things a few times so that he can be familiar with the reinstalls: it is a wonderful opportunity to learn how to fix things on your own. Also, you can set aside some time to go over things together. I've always fixed things for my dad when it came to tech related issues... so I can only imagine what it would have been like, had my dad sat down with me with some floppies and gone over DOS commands back in the day...

I'm sorry I left you for that whore Redhat but she was much easier (she came with the book). I went around the block a few times and am happy with Arch now... I'm sure you wanted to know that. I still think of you and your floppies from time to time...

You don't need divine intervention if you didn't print off the manual... alt-f2 to another prompt and 'links' the docs off the cdrom (or from the net if you set up the nic). alt-f#'ing back and forth can be a pain but it sure beats dual-booting to xp (or other) to troubleshoot. some say it's possible to ssh and control the install from a remote box but i've never tried that (i should!). after using portage, i could never get used to the yum/apt dance required in FC. anyways~
