Hi Mike,


to get the shell script working copy it into the /root directory or to a
none-FAT (e.g. ext2/3, reiser) partition. Then change the permissions
via xfe or the console.

I recommend you to dock dyne on a none-FAT partition. To create one
(ext3fs should be the best way) use the gparted tool located in the
'files' submenu.

Your nest can stay in /mnt/hd1/1/dyne.


Yours,
