The only system I've had hosed enough to need it was well beyond the help available from a reinstall :). Minimally do a "dpkg --get-selections >/tmp/selections.txt" and transfer that file somewhere safe. Then after doing a minimal install, you can "dpkg --set-selections </tmp/selections.txt", then do a dist-upgrade. Actually, maybe a dselect-upgrade would be more appropriate at that point. ciao, der.hans -- # [EMAIL PROTECTED] home.pages.de/~lufthans/ www.DevelopOnline.com # Magic is science unexplained. - der.hans
