I only recently moved up from F15 when it's Support Life Cycle ended....I;l be moving from F16 to F17 when F16's EOL has arrived as well.....but I'm going to definitely try out thi command line when I get out of the office today...thanks you again for the advice! Also, just as a "side-quest" if you will......

It would help to know what your are doing and how your are doing it and copy/pasting the information.  Otherwise, everyone will just be guessing.  Some people are better at guessing than others.  I'm not so good at it.

It's a Western Digital SATA drive, with that "WDVault" software on it that's suposed to keep the data secure, well it works, because when I plug it into my PC i can see the WDVault partiton wvhich isn't that big, but when I look for the info it tels me that I don't have permission to access it!!?? Is threre anyway for me to get to this info?.....lok forward to reading your responses!!

Well....I tried the suggestion Ed, and unfortunately this is the output:

bash-4.2# yum distro-sync

You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/janus

So I don't know what needs to be done now?....is there some way to 
"point" it in a different direction, so that it can find things 
again?...instead of giving me errors?....waiting with baited breath!...LoL!
