Julian, are you multibooting Xandros and Mandrake? If so then I would symlink one directory to another rather than deleting/renaming one.

Hi Grant,

Mandrake was hassling me with failing to boot 70% of the time so I erased it and replaced with Xandros. I figured I was looking at a reinstall anyway (as someone here also suggested) so I might as well try Xandros. Glad I did, I like it and the Debian style of updates is nice too. It even gives me an option in the Xandros Networks GUI to install a DEB *or* RPM I've downloaded separately. That was handy yesterday when I got annoyed with Crossover Office Demo which won't run some of the programs properly that WINE does without complaint. So I installed the latest DEB of WINE.

Currently dual booting Xandros and WinXP. Toying with the idea of seeing if I can get *them* to share mail files.

Kind regards,

Julian
