Just type your password and hit <enter>. I reinstall all the time whenever I poke around too much in my system. I keep all of my data on a separate partition, so it's no biggy. Then everything seems so clean... remember to write down all of your lessons learned (I just keep replying to this email from myself) for example, today I learned that [b]bootchart[/b] will make charts of your system as it's booting- so you can catch the bottlenecks. They get dumped in '/var/logs/bootchart/'. Then, in /etc/fstab', I changed the '1's at the end of the lines to '0's and it boots much faster. NOT TO MY ROOT PARTITION... but to my fat32 drives and such... must make a note to do this periodically, though a defrag of those partitions from Windows works just fine. I poked a few more bootup things in [b]sysv-rc-conf[/b] in my laptop and now the boot takes FOREVER.... may reinstall. I've been thinking about it anyway as I don't like what I've done with the panels and the colors and it's just easier to reinstall. I leave Envy alone... it loves me, I love it... I don't mess with it too much.. be back soon... Loading...
