That's good to know.  Thanks.  I will learn more about it.  I am very
new to Linux and I don't know about how to mount drives and look at
their files.  BTW, my DOS and Windows files are on Drive C.  My Linux
installation is also on the same hard drive but the logical drive letters
aren't visible from DOS and I don't even know yet how to find DOS drive
letters from within Linux.  Please don't try to explain at this time
because I will probably find out about this in the book or in a help file
somewhere.  If I can't find the answers on how to do this I will post
questions to the list.  I have a lot to learn before I can start asking
intelligent questions about how to use Linux.
