I really doubt that DoD cares if you get help or information from this mailing list. We have people with .gov email addresses participating (NASA, etc.) and none of them have Sig files like that.

If someone is silly enough to mis-route an email to me, it's their problem and they cannot enforce any contractual obligations on me whatsoever, since no contract exists (I didn't invite the email and there is no exchange of considerations). Even the ITAR stuff is BS - it;s *your* company's responsibility to control such information and it means nothing to anyone else - especially us "foreign persons". ;) All these disclaimers do is further reduce the signal/noise ratio of the SMTP protocol. . .

They are going to post something on the CentOS web site soon, which will be updated with progress reports. It will be done ASAP. I read your reply about the Suits and if you are a Jeans Engineer, I understand your frustration with that Sig file and the Suits...
Well, you must concede that it is *somewhat* ridiculous to read a one-line innocent email containing a twelve-line dense disclaimer...
It is trivial to create an initrd for the installer which has support the x58
chipset.
If you would like my copy which also works with atom boards just e-mail me
off-list.
