OK folks, thanks for replying. Have patience with this old idiot please.

I use a Sagum Fast 800 modem through USB for internet connection.

I have learnt Linux prefer network connectors. Am I right in that because
this modem does not have one.

Having first installed Ubuntu 5.10 and then 6.06 on my slave drive when I
boot I see a list that contains the 6.06 list, my XP and the 5.10 list. How
can I remove the 5.10 entry?

I will try hard not to use Window word here?
