I already have a good idea as to what i will add but its good to have a list for reference.

| | olegnep | Apr 3, 9:22am | i was going to just update but i also wanted to take a look at the beta , no dice tho , the live cd beta does not boot on my thinkpad r60 , freezes
also , where is Firefox kept in an ubuntu install , i want to throw my entire Firefox onto my home partition and keep it there while i upgrade so i don't lose it and i dont want to spend 15 mins looking for it if someone knows where it is. |
