Another note I’m putting here to remind myself of something…

I’ve been experimenting with whether or not I could replace my work computer with an Ubuntu box.

Naturally, the only piece of hardware available was a 5 year old laptop :(

Add this to the startup options to boot to console:

telinit 3

Works well if your X config is screwed up and you need command-line only access.

Yes, this tool is very old, but I always forget where to find them, or what the tool is called.

Who the heck will remember fciv.  Only Microsoft would come up with a name like that.

I’ll wait for fcivapvwsp2 to come out soon…
