It's 6.1, Peter.
The HD problem may have been caused by not paying enough attention
during install. I had Win 2K installed prior to this, and even though I
didn't want to dual-boot, that's where I ended up. I then formatted the
2d HD, and it took many hoops to get this drive recognized. On the other
hand, now I know where FSTAB is.
I would be very happy to help people with any Linux distro, but there
just isn't that kind of curiosity amongst my acquaintances. I did
install Fedora for one friend, but he's given up on it. It's very rare
for me to get a question that goes beyond email, or some hardware/OS
glitch that affects immediate operations. I don't know what this means.
Happy holidays to all.

Hugh, did you install the latest release, 6.10 or was it 6.06?
I'm still running 6.06 on an old Sempron based mobo and it offers far
more installed than any other OS. I haven't had problems with hdd
swapping but Samba was a chore.
I try to encourage it to people who can't afford new hardware for XP or
Vista or even those OS's themselves. I have tried in on an AMD 64 and it
is very speedy, but I haven't tried it on an old Mac yet.
It's what I like about Ubuntu and other distro's, it enables older
hardware to continue to serve owner's smoothly and securely into the
future.
I'm glad you do enjoy Ubuntu as well!
