ubiquity and orca bugs



For those interested in debugging ubiquity it's possible mounting a writeable zip disk or writeable floppy first; then running script -f as a command, then running ubiquity may get some of ubiquity's output saved to that mounted floppy disk or zip disk in the typescript file. The -f switch prevents buffering so as output happens to the screen it also happens to the floppy or zip drive. I hope this helps; when the system freezes like a snow cone and the frozen status is certain eject the disk once the hard reboot command gets given if necessary. The script command will not have finished executing but it won't have buffered either and lost stuff either.
