thank you for the fast response! Everything is working fine now!
vsta starts up and I can login.
After reading the mail-archives there still are questions:
1) it seems as every access to the harddisk is _very_ slow. It took my
machine 3-4 seconds from
"less readme"
until the first line is displayed. The command "ls" takes a lot of time to
react, too.
Is the FAT-filesystem as slow or is this behaviour machine (/hd) -dependent?
(actually i use a pentium 200 with a fast hd)
2) does there is an actual todo-list? could only find elder ones in the
mailing-archive. Im interested in doing some network stuff ;)
3) Just a remark: the installation tutorial on the website is probably
outdated (http://www.zendo.com/vsta/Tutorial/Install.html).
have a nice day
roman
