The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

I answered your other questions already, but I think I didn't understand
this one the first time. If you copy the boot floppy to the disk cartridge,
you will be using its own special version of /sbin/init . The kernel runs
/sbin/init at boot time, and init starts all other processes. This version
of init is part of my "tiny" Unix tool suite - 30 common Unix tools in one
37K executable. It will run /etc/rc and then start dinstall on the first
console and shell on the second console.
