[QUOTE="cradom, post: 1615756, member: 305283"] Actually, that would be the better option, assuming you have the space to back up your files. IF none of your files are larger than 4 gigs, you can use a FAT32 formatted drive and not worry about permissions. But either way it can be done. Right now I need to go to bed. I get up at 3am for work and need my sleep. Find all the space you can to back up your files and unless someone jumps in (gonna use ditto or cp unless you know a better option) we can take this up tomorrow. Really want to get this sorted and you back on the road so to speak. Lisa, stick around and learn something (I thought you were an IT geek?). Night all, til tomorrow... [/QUOTE]
