[Gllug] Triple booting Win2k, Debian, RedHat

IMHO, it's bash that gets it worng. Really, a login shell should
read .bash_profile and then .bashrc, and a normal shell should
just read .bashrc.

To get this behaviour, I source .bashrc from .bash_profile, which
I assume this is what the default Debian install does (I gave up
on Debian at around 1.3, so I can't say for sure).

But it's hard to claim that Red Hat are at fault for this. They're
simply doing what bash does out of the box.
