Good evening!
Just a note to say that if the CD-R/CD-RW thing was worked out, then
(as per usual) all personal files could be backed up, and then it would be a
"simple" matter just to reinstall the O/S... :| In the "other operating
system" (MSWindowsXP), there is (personally) a separate partition created
for personal files, and the O/S is on its own partition (so that if there's
any problems with it that get out of hand, it can be reinstalled, without
affecting the files). Can this be done with Linux? Of course it ALWAYS pays
to backup files... Definitely need to figure the CD-R/CD-RW burning thing
out, in Linux. If the files were backed up (esp. the ones Nick downloaded),
then it wouldn't be such an issue... The problem is that the modem stuff is
NOT backed up... And if the system is reinstalled then the file(s) are lost,
and no way to download them onto that partition. Yes, patience... Best to
keep it simple... ;)
