You might try verifying that by checking the change times of, say, the five oldest Texinfo pages on your system: stat -c "%z" /usr/share/info/* | sort -nr | tail -n 5 If those dates agree with the ones for /root/*log and /root/anaconda*, then that's a pretty good candidate. -- Paul Heinlein <> heinlein at madboa.com <> www.madboa.com
