I'm fixing my setup and can only write from Android 4 which have problems
with mail list etiquette.
if you read what you send to the list you can see mistakes in what you
write and sometimes is hard to make sense of the meaning of the expression.
I sent the mail because after a few times is hard to listen to a person
that you can't understand.
another thing, why are so angry? is a discussion about lvm and partitions
not if star wars is better or not than star trek.
