I( must say I was impressed when I recently installed from Shane's
speakup netinst cd that the kernel option I gave at boot was kept in the
menu.lst file. I was all ready to go fiddle with it by hand, but it
just worked. If only getting potato installed had been that easy I would
never have had my love hate relationship with slackware and would have
been able to enjoy Debian that much longer. Thanks to everyone involved
for the good work.
