could look at the package 'ddclient' which
is a PERL script that does just that. If it doesn't do quite what you
want you could modify it.

ill need to read up on it, if you get to grips with it, it will allow
you to resize logical volumes (file systems reside in a logical volume
as opposed to a physical partition) much more easily.

Windows Vista icon against the operating system line, even though it's

University of Manchester,
it is a significant amount of cpu intensive stuff, then
the extra speed and cache would most likley be useful.
Or you could go with the advice I was given a while ago and that is
always buy the highest spec machine you can afford, so if the £70 is not
an issue then go for it!
