Hey, thanks for the reply
Downloading is a bit of a problem unless it's just small updates and i don't have the Ubuntu cd anymore either
I don't understand why my Ubuntu doesn't handle reiserfs, i've tried installing a couple of packages hoping that something might get dragged in as a dependency or something but just don't seem to have had much luck.
I haven't tried any of those Cds in case one of them starts trying to install or format or 'recover' otherwise damage the data on my /home partition (or the Ubuntu partitions)
Anyway, thaks and regards from
Tom
