intro.tex:
- correct name of GS-ShrinkIt - mention that spaces cannot be used in pathnames in the /etc/namespace file - fixed some formatting problems where words were run together when switching from boldface or italic back to roman type - updated disk space requirements for v2.0.6 - be more explicit in "extracting and installing [v2.0.6]" about the destination volume names and requirements - some changes of awkward text
