Hi,

I just found a huge security flaw that lets anyone take root control of your 
computer during boot.

I sent mandrake a bug report, but who should I send this information to?  I 
found it posted on a linux users list for beginners, so it is online for 
crackers to find.  I found it while searching for something else entirely.

Thank you.
Since I am getting this list in digest please use my private email,
linda at timestocome.com  I am polling that almost continously.
