all i'm suggesting is that it took an inordinately long time to figure
out what should have been a two-minute exercise.  i'm guessing that,
in most cases, readers aren't interested in a long-winded overview of
things -- they just want to know what commands to run to get
something done, which is all i wanted in the first place.

in short, what people might want is a fedora "cookbook" with tight,
concise recipes that just plain work, out of the box.  if they choose
to read up later on the underlying operations, then that's their
choice.
