Now trying to copy /home/lisa to a usb disc so I can just reinstall.
When usb disc plugged in mesage to terminal suggesting that it is sdh
but unable to mount sdh.
Vague memories of a scanbus comand to find where the usb disc mounts but
cant find it in my booksx5.
Not in etc/fstab or mount.
any clues appreciated

First things is that upgrading Hoary straight to Dapper was always
going to be a disaster, you should have followed hoary --> breezy -->
dapper as it was intended.
If you just want to backup and reinstall, then just use the Dapper
install disk (or any previous live cd), backup what you want , then re
install. Should all be easy and straight forward.
