BTW, once you have everything together, please send me a PM so I can grab a copy of the files. I'd be interested in taking a look at them, if only to see how they differ from the production ones.

OK... I've got two options here. I have a 32G USB drive and there's a 500G hard drive in the computer I'm using as a terminal. Sooo all I'd need to do would be to mount the one of the drives and go back to your instructions. I tried to mount the hard drive, but between not having the slightest idea what I was doing and... I guess that's enough, isn't it. 
Could you please give me the instructions to mount the USB drive? It's currently formatted as FAT32. Would that work OK? It'd be a lot easier to get the files into my real world from there. The hard drive has Mint linux installed in whatever format it wanted to use. That's where I'd planned to learn to stand... or maybe crawl into the linux world.
OK. Just popped the USB drive in and it was right there in /media/usbdisk... I think. We'll see what happens.
(is there a BB code for strikeout?)
Get you copies? After all your help, it would be the least I could do.
