Thanks I am booting on a Jazz drive 1 mb and when you gave me he files I
went back to linux to boot and could not boot I fear my disk is full and I
have no idea how to get back in to delete some files so I can boot? The
disk wont boot under X windows for sure?
The full disk may be why I could not run settee I know I should be using a
real hardrive so oh well?
