I've had very few upgrade problems, and I have done a lot of them, often to beta releases too. I can't blame the upgrade for this one; pulling the power out midway through an install or upgrade you'd expect to break something! Of-course with a fresh install you'd just wipe and start again, whereas in this case it was worth a little effort to try and recover if I could. It was surprisingly straightforward in the end - and it really was *very* broken! I certainly didn't have the luxury of niceties like ethernet or GUIs when it broke! -- Mark Rogers // More Solutions Ltd (Peterborough Office) // 0844 251 1450 Registered in England (0456 0902) @ 13 Clarke Rd, Milton Keynes, MK1 1LG _______________________________________________ Peterboro mailing list Peterboro@mailman.lug.org.uk https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/peterboro
