Thanks for the quick reply. I'm downloading the image again, the original was on the machine that is down of course :D I'll try to clean it up from the livecd, but out of interest: I did some reading since I posted and would I be right in thinking that it might be trying to continue the destroy, and that it might actually finish (eventually)?
