I think your account is probably all set up and working. There's just a magic formula to getting it activated :-) Ask for a password reset :-) And please don't edit that page if you think it's badly out of date. I'm intentionally leaving old pages there for historical reasons - if you scanned down the wiki you'll have found that page in the "The Valley of the Kings" section :-) (If you do create a new page, just put a note at the start of the old page pointing to the new one.) Thing is, I've lost a lot of references to lilo, grub-1, PATA drives, etc etc, and if someone has an old system they'll want to find the old stuff. Find a place in the current setup where you think it fits nicely, rewrite it from scratch all up to date, and slot it in. Also note the "editing guidelines" - they're pretty slack but I am trying to keep a consistent editorial feel to the site - it just makes it a much pleasanter place to read. Cheers, Wol
