Marvellous - thank you very much. I'll back up my data. Presumably I need to bring some $$$ for media, or blank replacements, if so how much or how many?

the install and then getting someone to help me with setting up swat or webmin, plus whatever else, so that I can get 2 way file access between my linux box and windows machines?


You're talking about 2 different things here:

1) General system administration. On SuSE, yast will get you a very
long way and is pretty simple. Webmin is there too, but I think it may
be a bit risky as it may conflict with yast in some areas.

2) File sharing with windows, which practically means using samba. yast
can configure samba clients and servers, to what extent has to be seen.

I don't see a problem with you bringing in your machine if there's
time, which by the looks of it there will be.
