You may have noticed the site has been down since Thursday night. You may of course also not have noticed. Either way you are about to find out why!
Thursday I decide to try opensuse 10.3 briefly as until recently I was using opensuse 10.2. Unfortunately, it’s boot loader didn’t set the windows bit up right so I couldn’t boot into Vista. After managing to restore Vista’s bootloader I hit into a new problem. Vista realised it wasn’t 100% legitimate and locked me out (it was of course 95% legit just incase any police or microsoft employees are reading this site…. and in the case of microsoft employees I’ll make you a deal…. stop spamming my site and I’ll ensure all my software is genuine).
Anyway back on topic I spent most of Friday trying to get some form of OS on without losing data. Unfortunately XP (which I do legitimatly own BTW) wouldn’t let me connect to the net without my network card driver, opensuse would struggle with all my mp3 and video files that are on an NTFS volume and after swapping OS a large number of times I finally manage to download the network card driver and install windows XP which is where we are now.
Needless to say the next time I mess with my operating systems wont be for a while (least until the PS3 offers divx support or a linux media server will transcode for the PS3)
