Then when I tried to exit X it went south with a couple of hda

Is your hard drive dying? If so, I'm pretty sure I have a spare 2.5"
laptop hard drive that I saved from a previous Thinkpad upgrade. If
memory serves, it's only 10-20GB, but it might do the trick. If you
think that'd help let me know - I'll have to double check its
existence when I get to my office, but otherwise it's yours if you want.
