Thanks - I thought as much but was hopeful ;0) In the meantime I get
around the size limitation of the nest by placing a link to a folder on
the hard drive in the nest.

I will have a go at revising that wiki page when I have time - it is
talking about win 98 & a nest up to the size of the whole hard drive
(wow! that big) so it must be old.

I also didn't realise the nest kept /usr/local - that is helpful, I will
have to remember to compile stuff prefix=/usr/local

best wishes

Guy
