I can't get DVD::Rip to work  properly), anyway at this point I have a partition in Linux called  /extra which is /dev/hda8 and if I install W2K och /dev/hda1 and later  go back to Linux, will the /dev/hda8 be there and just to add during the  installation as /extra or whatever.I presume that this isn't a  problem but I would like it confirmed before I do it

   Cheers  Anders Anders, I'm surprised at you. You can't get DVD::Rip to work? Did you download and install all the dependencies? I just finished ripping Speilberg's "Taken" disk one and two (only takes a few minutes to rip to disk) - and going to convert to AVI and then to SVCD at my leisure. DVD::Rip is so much better than any of the others - especially MS Windows based rippersI'd second the request for a linux based program similar to DVD shrink.I take it Stephen has never used this "ripper", it automatically reduces a dual-layer DVD to the size required to fit on a "normal" DVD--/+r disk , writing the vob's as well. It can also edit the disk before this to remove any parts of the disk that aren't wanted, if you only wanted the movie, without the menu or any other part of the disk including additional soundtracks.Why would
  anyone
 want to convert a DVD quality movie and downgrade it to SVCD standard? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]Powered by Mandrake 10.1Microsoft FreeWant to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.comJoin the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com

I am a home user who only want a system to work, nothing fancy so if you  have any suggestionsTIA MaryseWhat I would honest suggest is that you back up your home directory to aCDRW, and then just do a straight and clean installation; that way, youwon't take any nasty leftovers with your installation; that's what I'vecome to realise - and I went
 from 9.1 to 10.0 OE; after havingexperimented with another machine, that ended up being the best means bywhich to upgrade - fresh clean install.stephen kuhn - proprietor__illawarra computer services :: a kuhn media australia venturehttp://kma.0catch.com :: mobile 0410.728.389Serving Sydney, The Illawarra, South Coast and Rural NSW__* This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer *We expressly refuse to utilise Microsoft DRM encoded documents__Mandrake GNU/Linux 10.0 OE/Kernel 2.6.3-7/ No Viruses here.
