[PLUG] Once again Linux has proven to me it is only good for non critical apps

[Kirk Goins]

You are very right, but after a long day and a nasty drive home from
Seattle, blah, blah.. Anyway Sorry Everyone.

I will see what I can do over the weekend. The Base OS is ( was? ) Ubuntu
10.04.2 LTS. I have found the DVD and booted from it. I can mount the drive
and I can see and navigate through the folders etc.

I don't see a grub prompts as this is the only OS on that box.

More News later and thanks for all  the suggestions
