Hi Vince, I've actually spent over 25 years developing real-time embeded 
software, mainly on linux and solaris based machines.  I don't have much 
experience with databases, other than postgres but enough to know that you 
have to be very careful with them to avoid corruption.

When you said that the db should be deleted, I was unsure if I should drop 
some tables using sql or rm -rf some files.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Ian
