I ran svn revert -R /BETA1/usr/src and intend to update and patch within a few hours. I don't think anybody makes 128 MB USB sticks any more, smallest in current production may be 4 GB or 8 GB. For the price, no use buying anything under 8 GB or perhaps 16 GB. I have two old IDE hard drives, 341 MB and 1271 MB, that I access with Sabrent USB 2.0 enclosure. This enclosure also has eSATA interface that works with SATA but not IDE hard drives. 1271 MB drive worked when I last tried some months ago, but 341 MB drive just gives gibberish. I don't know whether the 55 sectors per track is incompatible with USB adapter, or if the drive has gone bad. Tom
