I suppose I assumed it was something else when I did the first install. I've now got a good install afaik at this point, so I'll start off by updating the basic system. I know there is a heap of stuff that has changed since 4.7, and I just gotta play catch up. I'm not one to jump on the latest and greatest... xen is like a foreign language to me.. don't want it or need it. Will peruse the archives and see what else I've got to get updated on.. 73, Sam
