Can I get my username changed to Fry or Philip J Fry ?

Yep that guy from Futurama Big Grin

The reason is because I can relate to Fry and strange enough me and him share the same goofiness Big Grin I do have a question though:

1. How will having administrator/Moderator effect my auto login ? Will I have to log out then log back in with my new username ?

the reason I ask is because my browser automaticly logs me in and I'd hate to have to reinstall Debian (if I had to) and not be able to log back in....

I had my username changed just by posting a thread, an administrator saw the thread and changed it.

SkyBlue0 is the first skyblue, but it's really small so we only use it to boot up.  SkyBlue1 is the main partition, mounted at /.  SkyBlue2 is swap space.  SkyBlue3 is the /home directory.

I think your package manager uses it, actually.  But you can set it up as a separate partition by default in your installation.  

But really, so long as you have /, you can do anything.  It'll give you advise, though, depending on your distro.  Mint likes to have dedicated BIOS space, whatever that means.

Is Mint talking about the same BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) or does it use it's own BIOS ? This is confusing to me cause I always though computers provided their own BIOS space in RAM or something like that... huh, I need to refresh on some computer knowledge I guess...

So the /var/ directory stores configuration files or Bins ? :/
