[9fans] Some Dumb Beginner Questions re draterm

[Greg Pavelcak <g.pavelcak@comcast.net>]

Judging from my previous email, a new plan9 user and a 6-pack is
a dangerous combination. I hope you get the idea though.

Geesh, there was a time when a 6-pack had no effect, but you don't
need to hear me whine about aging in addition to my other insipid
emails.

well i screwed up on first boot but only u.comm was wrong
so ps was stuffed.  not much of a stagger to fix that.

exec was 20 times quicker the next day.  when i visited the labs
that year ... well dennis said something like "haven't we spent
enough time hacking the kernel" - which was a fair call.
but rob let me try it on ikeya, kernel dev from robs pad on
a 5620 i think  yes it was in v8.

my goto was a drunken lark, but i see thatr jmk doen't mind
using it.
