Above is pretty nice - however I'm notsure how some of those command lines help ad do whatever they do -- but just wanted to say Boot Knoppix using; Knoppix 1 as the Boot: prompt cheatcode - this will load knoppix in runlevel1 you *may" just be able to run grub-install right from there - choose the MBR install after done (and if installation doesn't give you prompt to reboot you) try; shutdown -r now or just use 3 finger salute (ctrl-alt-del) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
