Re: FarCry installation on Linux hosted service

Well, i'm with hostmysite and they'll install it for you if you would  
like, they're pretty good like that.

However, after i installed it, it all went pear shaped (no fault of  
hostmysite's but FarCry I think - but that was a year or so ago)...  
so then i decided to create my own CMS.  I suggest to try and get  
FarCry working! :)
