Thanks Ed:
The second is what I am really trying to do. I forget sometimes with Linux
that you can go way overboard easily.
All I am trying to do is figure out how to install the installation I want. I
have found though unless you delete Lilo boot that you may not get what you
think you install because placing a new installation on top of an old one
appears to use part of the old installation.
Thanks
