Just BeleniX, I backed up my data to a usb hard drive then trashed the disk to put BeleniX on as it's only a small hard disk. I still have the BeleniX LiveCD and can access the hard disk using it, so that isn't a problem, it's trying to boot from the hard disk I'm having problems with. If it comes to it I'll just do a wipe-and-install of linux, but I was hoping to have an OpenSolaris system to work with. Have Fun, Jim.
