PS1 prompt generator

A real cool site for generating a PS1 (prompt string) in Linux is ezprompt.net. It’s an awesome resource for generating your ideal prompt, and then dropping it quickly into your .bashrc file and running a source ~/.bashrc to get your new prompt. Try it out!

Dell R210 ii not booting
