Once all done and finished on reboot, adding extra utilities that i use the installer managed drive locking etc without problems. ( considered a success but newbees would be stumped ) Then installed the xfce4 as i trully hate the new gnome and had forgot to set the option in the install at the begining. Many thanks span
