Hi, Here's some example of hard to understand posts... Maybe I ain't the only one following the thread, that tried to help Gunnar but got lost in the linguistics problems. On 2021-08-01 9:39 a.m., Gunnar Gervin wrote: > Dual boot'ed, > I forgot to tell you. > Thus the sucker(?) can sit 'alone' in a dysfunctional 1/2 of my PC, > maybe 'he' never returns anyway. *dysfunction 1/2 of your PC ?* Okay this could be related to the first sentence about dual booting. So you got one of the two system not working. Which one ? You know, how are we supposed to know. > After built up all in 1 'secret' 1/2, I plan to re-partition the 1t *all in 1 'secret' 1/2 ?* What is this supposed to mean > half, to clean out 'all' dysfunctions, in a Linux, & Linux Debian *clean out all dysfunction in a Linux & Linux Debian* So you have two Debian system ? > 'answer' to Factory Reset, a learning way, which FReset really isn't, or > little. *'answer' to Factory Reset* ? Where you answered what ? FReset ? Is it a typo for Reset or a way for you to say Factory Reset ? Trying to save a few letter won't help your case. Unless you are using a 300 baud modem, maybe you should let go the space saving acronym and use plain English. I won't go back to the list of messages... But here's one that is pretty much the top of line when we consider hard to understand. https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2021/07/msg01033.html Thx for the request to help in this project even not knowing code. I'll firstly try it on my 14 yr old Debian Buster ex-macbook. Nice way to include more people &, probably, improve+stabilize the distro much faster. Learning Linux Debian is a nice hobby(feels more like a lifestyle) -- *A ex-Macbook ? what make it change from a MacBook to a none-Macbook ?* https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2021/07/msg01219.html >> On 2021-07-28 3:16 p.m., Gunnar Gervin wrote: >>> It is a Toshiba 160 gb hd in a 14 years old Macbook i386 ❤️/x86 32 b >>> booting from Bios not uefi.

Now is he saying his machine can WORK with Debian or is this related to the message I had with him earlier about a problem with his system NOT WORKING and CRASHING on update, requiring CLEAN REINSTALL. And this is the part that would be nice to know... ---- *And we still don't know !* > BR, > Geg. > > On Wed, 21 Jul 2021, 18:59 Dan Ritter, <dsr@randomstring.org > <mailto:dsr@randomstring.org>> wrote: > > Reco wrote: > > On Wed, Jul 21, 2021 at 10:51:40AM -0400, Celejar wrote: > > Numbers show that I was incorrect.
