John - Everything worked as you laid it out for me. You were right: it didn't do what I wanted. I think that, as you indicated, the Linux folders were most likely overwritten by Windows folders of the same name.

I did some backups to DVD in late April and will start rebuilding from there. Unfortunately, the most recent backup of my Evolution files is 18 months old, so I've got a real challenge ahead of me in rebuilding my addressbook.

BTW In the future, when I back up files to this external HD, wouldn't it be safer for me to partition it into two partitions - one FAT32 and the other ext3? Or maybe I'll just go back to using CDs and DVDs.

Thanks for your help.  Kelly
