Hey - everyone is taking this way too seriously. It's a new distro, I'm
screwing around with it on a devel machine. I mean, come on. The
Fedora home page essentially says "don't use this on production
machines," so it's not like I'm going to run the computers that keep a
patient's heart beating with it.
I'm just having fun, that's all.
Very good advice on the rsync thing, tho, thanks!
