I'm glad you're awake Simon, I don't appear to be ;)  Yes I have a
Knoppix CD and I know where it is too (bonus with my memory! :))

I'm actually in South Wales, so unless someone fiddled a business trip
I don't think it would be worth the bother for them :)

Incidentally I found out how to interrupt LILO (by pressing the TAB
key), so at the boot prompt I tried the 'noresume' option.
Unfortunately no joy so I'll try the Live CD next :)

Kind regards,

Julian
