Well, looks like by now it would have been fixed. :/ I'm not sure I can use Kdar to do a system backup. I use it to backup my Documents and such though. Problem is, it uses the .dar thing instead of a regular tarball. I also don't think I can uncompress it from the Gentoo CD either. Kdar is nice but it seems to me that this mondo thing would be better to rescue from. Oh well, Say a prayer that nothing breaks. ;-) Open to ideas though. :-) Dale :-) :-) :-) -- www.myspace.com/-remove-me-dalek1967 Copy n paste then remove the -remove-me- part.
