/cut
I'm not at the computer, but I am sure that I don't get to see that option.
I believe the kernels to boot into comes up before the encription password.
Given this, I will give it a try when I have it.
I don't bring it with me anymore as it is hard to navigate without X. I do
like the idea as I learn to navigate in text given that it is extremely
challenging being so used to X, but it becomes rather useless since I
forget much because of disuse.
Something someone in Development ought to create is the ability to
multitask in the text environment.
Thanks for the tips,
Richard
