Don't know what's wrong with this forum - I logged in - forum welcomes me, but when I added a reply it called me 'guest' again
:(  ?

rob,
2 posts are not enough, must be the age  :)

I've forgotten the easiest checks you could do, just enter:
Code Sample
mount

(lists you all that is currently mounted incl. your root filesystem)

Code Sample
df

('disk free' shows also what is mounted + capacities)

Jo

df -h is alot easier to read

I have never just tried the mount command...thanks for that one!

ok jo, thanks for your detailed reply.

in response here are the thiungs both you and AwPhuch recommended i check

my fstab reads...(RO in emelfm)

/dev/hda1  /  ext2  defaults,errors=remount-ro  0  1
proc   /proc   proc   defaults  0  0
etc etc

and the 'mount' command gives this...

>/dev/hda1  on  /  type ext2  (rw,errors=remount-ro)
>/proc  on  /proc  type proc  (rw)
>/dev/pts  on  /dev/pts  type devpts  (rw)
>/proc/bus/usb  on  /proc/bus/usb  type usbdevfs  (rw,devmode=0666)

and just for completeness
df -h gives.....

Filesystem                 Size   Used   Avail   Use%  Mounted on
/dev/hda1                 473M  273M  177M   61%    /

now i'm really confused as all of the above seems to say that the installed to drive is actually hda1 and  is corrupted somehow. although i could be missing something (hopes).

btw, i am not still running from the cd.

I hope you can help cus i just managed to install jre 1.5.0.05 and limewire lastnight (both from .bin files)  after much trying.
