Hello

Well just happened that in the last install I've done, venti started to dump
before i can edit termrc, remove the -L from termrc and reboot. (really acme
hanged while loading due to the initial dump, when the load went down acme
started as usual, but fossil was dumped). May be i should be more quickly,
but after installing without dma, i wasn't seeing the screen :)

as you said if there is no real problem with venti, it doesn't matter. one
can change the timezone and the termrc later.

thanks

gabi
