Sort of on topic but sort of hijacking this thread:
Can the /hack directory be put in the root directory with a simlink at /var/hack pointing to /hack? If possible, this would keep /var/hack from disappearing when /var is rebuilt. I ask this because I think I'm long overdue for one of those mystery rebuilds!

Thanks for the info Gunny. I'm one of those old foggies who upgraded when sleeper's iso was hot stuff. Since then I have fiddle-farted around with stuff as it came along. I stopped right about when you guys came up with your zipper (I used 'the unguide'). I did use one of rbautch's early enhancement scripts but opted out of having it install TWP as I already had it in /usr/tivoweb (I moved it there after it 'disappeared' one too many times). So, I'm way behind the times now.

My /var has been wiped exactly... oodles. But I blame myself for each of them. The good thing about having 2 tivos is I don't get shot every time I screw up while playing with one.
