Thanks to those who gave advice on moving a directory and leaving a symbolic link. Seems to work. As a matter of fact the whole system seems better now that the pressure is off hd6. It was over 90% full. Next. Back when I used another OS, I had a Norton Utilities program that was a rescue package using both a floppy and a zip disk. Needless to say, it came in handy. I don't believe there is anything like that for Linux, but if I was to fill a zip with 100Mb of the most important stuff, what would be the best candidates. This would be sort of a partial backup of essentials since I don't have a tape unit or a CD burner. Any ideas? Thanks Richard
