Hi,

my old memory chip was damaged, and I suspect that this resulted in compilation errors. Now I have replaced the memory chip and I'd like to recompile everything, just to make sure my glibc and other important tools aren't corrupted.

Now my question: Is it safe to run scripts/bootstrap.sh on a running system while working at that system (KDE, browsing, IRC, ICQ)? Is there anything I should do before bootstrapping again?

Thanks in advance,
Michael

Thanks for the answer.

I'll start the re-bootstrap (or rebootstrap?) now ;-)
