mdmfs -P

[Leo R. Lundgren]

Hi,

Yeah, I tried the stable mailinglist, no response. I'm a bit unsure 
where this question belong, so I figured I'd try the questions 
mailinglist before i go "disturb" currect, I bet they're all busy making 
Free an even better product ;)

I might try current later on though, just thought someone here would know :)
