http://crunchbang.org – I've just done something super dumb.Was preparing a usb key to install Waldorf on a T60 and typed :sudo dd if=crunchbang-11-20121015-i686.iso of=/dev/sdainstead of :sudo dd if=crunchbang-11-20121015-i686.iso of=/dev/sddI ctrl-C ed after 183 MB had been copied./dev/sda1 is my crunchbang / partitionThe system is still running fine.I'm quite sure I hosed the boot sector, MBR and the partition table by writing to the device directly with a raw file.Is there anything I could do to repair the damage short of a reinstall? Or is my crunchbang like a nuke victim, still walking though already (HowTos)

Hi all. OS: Crunchbang Waldorf (image crunchbang-11-20121015-amd64.iso, Wheezy, 64 bits). Hardware: Dell Inspiron 1525, 2 Gb RAM. Result: perrrfect. Quick, without anything to report. So successful that was almost boring. Network, video, wacom tablet support, everything went super smooth. Additional install scripts (dropbox, google chrome, etc.) worked their magic flawlessly. And runs fast.

I'm trying to install PHP5, by compiling it myself.

I'm doing this on Crunchbang Linux, version 11. Specifically, the version using the 3.2 kernel. Crunchbang 11 is based on Debian. This is a 64-bit Virtual machine, running on a 64-bit Win7 Professional.

Hey, I have used #! for about 2 years on my Asus EEE PC 701 netbook. Started with hearing about cruncheee. Searched it, installed it and got used to using crunchbang. Crunchbang is nothing short but a work of art.
