Please try not to top post in this ML. Boot your laptop using a Linux LiveCD. Mount your hard drive (e.g. mount /dev/hda /mnt/hda. Start sshd. Go to your desktop and run something like: cat archive_file.bz2 | ssh -c blowfish [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cd /mnt/hda ; tar -xjpvf archive_file.bz2" WARNING: I haven't tried it out, but you could adjust/adapt it and experiment with it. -- Regards, Mick
