The biggest problem with having a holiday and not really going out much is that my body clock tends to get all screwed up. Wake at 12pm (lunchtime) and go to bed at 4am.. wouldn’t be so bad except I have work on Tuesday. I guess I should go to bed now.

Annoyances
I’ve been meaning to write this entry for a while but never quite got around to it. It’s probably not all that interesting, but I really want to write it because then maybe when one of these things happens, I’ll stop thinking “Must complain about that (to no-one in particular)”
User Mode Linux
I’ve just spent the best part of 9 hours installing a Fedora Core 3 User Mode Linux (UML) filesystem and configuring it so that it works. It’s been a learning experience for sure, but once I’ve backed up the virtual disks, I can play around with various things like apache2/mod_perl2 without breaking any existing servers and if it all goes horribly wrong, I can just restore the disk back to how it was.
