Given John is clearly not an advanced user, if you're going to suggest using tools like chroot, I'd suggest providing a step-by-step guide to doing it. Handing someone a CD and "use chroot" isn't really going to be useful to most people. I'm thinking tonight I might record a screencast about how to do this because it gets asked for quite a bit. > Seeing your new comments though, I would advise against doing this yourself > as you could break your system. > *boggle* Al. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
