 Thanks for your hard work and clear posts - you've made a lot of DSL users happy!
 
 I had (inappropriately) posted a question re apt-get errors with Synaptic on the "loving it!" post in User Feedback. Thanks for your response - I read the thread and still have a couple of questions which I'll follow up with here:
 
 1) I'm running DSL 0.6.2 from a hard drive rather than CD - will the script still work in this case? (I see the commands to create writable directories in the RAM Disk, but I don't know Linux well enough to know what would happen here.)
 
 2) If the script downgrades apt and I'm running DSL from a HD:
 - is the apt downgrade written to the HD?
 - will it "break" other -gets which want a later apt?
 - if so, can apt be easily upgraded?
 
 (Sorry, I know my newbieness is showing like mad here.)
