Yippie!!! That worked. I have LiVES installed, I can open it and it looks like everything is there that is supposed to be. Thanks for all the help...
I still don't have access to my hard drive though. That would be a puredyne issue rather than LiVES. Someone earlier in this thread suggested I might have to change the boot parameters to reflect that live is on C: rather than on the DVD, and that there was a post mail about that recently regarding using both DVD and USB boot on a macbook, and that I could search the archives. I searched back about a year and couldn't find anything that looked related. Now that I think of it, the system must know that LiVES is on the c: drive because that has to be where it was installed just now. The dvd I used for the boot dvd isn't a rewritable one, so where else would the LiVES installed files be? I have used the file manager and all I can see is lintian, trash, desktop and filesystem. FileSystem has 21 folders that all look like the dvd. Thanks again for the patients.
