johnny is on a distinguished road
eventually i'm going to make that script better.. i'm just a slacker.

i finally got my laptop up and running again. i ended up doing a floppy/ftp install of arch (cd drive is fucked). i had some problems with all that kernel panic business, but now everything is working fine. i haven't installed X yet.. just been learning how to use gnu screen, which is pretty nifty. this machine is usually pretty slow, so i might just go without X and a window manager, etc.. as long as i can find decent console-based solutions to all the things i might do on this machine (i don't use this laptop very much..)
