Edward:

Thanks for the reply. No, I haven't tried this as I am still trying to 
figure out fdisk/cfdisk and parted. This is a whole new area to me and 
I've got alot of learning/understanding about what I should or can do 
... and shouldn't do.

I will try tomorrow ... I've had enough Fedora for the day and want a 
bit of time to be Irish (said with a sip of appropriate celebration liquid)
