[bf1942] *blushing* NOOB ?

[Stefan Engbersen]

#1:
The linuxserver filesize is: 103MB
But if you look at http://bf1942.lightcubed.com/forum/dist.php you can 
also see an MD5 file :)

#2:
For the linuxserver? No, you just need to download that 
bf1942_lnxded-1.6-rc1.run </dist/bf1942_lnxded-1.6-rc1.run> file from 
the link I gave you above and run it.

#3:
If you start the server in a screen using "+statusMonitor 1" you get a 
nice console in it too :) where you can enter commands etc..

#4:
On the blackops forum, Kevin (BFSM Developer) wrote it will be out in 
the evening (GMT+10) of sunday (today)
Anyway, the answer is SOON

#5:
The best way is to backup and merge your 1.5 configfiles in your 
new,fresh installed 1.6 server.

Greetz,
