If all you are going to do is make stupid cracks, you should just go
back to your masturbation session, because you will fail at jacking my
brain, boy.

Really? No!

Oh boy! I'm really interested in emulated OSes that run several tens of
percentage points slower than native boots. NOT!

I have over 120 GB of ROMs for my emulation needs.

I have done more variants of Linux installs than a twit like you has.

How many ALPHA boxes do you have?

I have one, and TWO SBCs for it.

You are out of your league, boy.

If you retarded had examined the problem instead of being peanut
gallery retard wanna bes, you wouldn't be getting the south end of my
social prowess.

Something you do not have the capacity to discern the nature of.

Yet you make claims of maturity.

I'd like to get rid if windoze anyway, but I still miss a few things
like HW-drivers [MSI DKA 790gx platin, HUAWEI3G] in Linux to make me
fully swap.

It was/is my intention to isolate my OS(KESYS) and stay hidden for other
systems in any case. So it doesn't follow any standards, not at least for
security reasons.

Yeah, I could make it standard Boot, but as mentiones above, I wont want :)

I'll check on Mac some day ...
