I beg to differ.

I had created a partition to be used as /root and the installer (LM9.0) said
"NO, /root cannot be on a partition of its own".

What's that? Isn't it that fscking PITA which tries to automatically mount
any media put in a device and which crashes when you try and shut the system
down, making you have to hit the reset button?

Munged by SpamCop. I no longer have the original spam, just a copy of the
LART sent by SpamCop to MandrakeSoft.

There was none in the original spam. SpamCop adds the User-Agent: header to
the LART so that it reflects the browser used to submit the spam sample to
SpamCop's parser.

This header:

Received: from office.mandrakesoft.com (195.68.114.34)
  by mailgate.cesmail.net with SMTP; 26 May 2003 14:37:24 -0000

...is irrefutable. It is the point of entry to SpamCop's e-mail system and
cannot be forged. 195.68.114.34 *is* office.mandrakesoft.com, the mail was
spam, therefore Mandrake are spammers. Therefore they'll never get a penny
out of me and I'll always go out of my way to point this out to people
asking if Mandrake is any good.
