I've got rest (Stack, call, etc) on a piece of paper. If it's needed I'll
type it here.

[root@atlantis scripts]# sh ver_linux

The background: Two concurent uuxqt were delivering news (rnews batches),
cp -arv copied the WINE source and I've been reading news using tin.
Then it all happened. I could switch VTs use SysRequest keys, but no
shell, no mingetty worked. I've got one (relatively) big 8 GB ext2
partition...

Dawid Kuroczko

PS: Earlier 2.2.0-pre9 locked itself while copying files to floppy.
Floppy diode shined and there was no system reaction. Even SysRqs
didn't work
