Hi,Joseph,
I tried Partition 12,after selecting update.
What I get is a Screen full of errors,but what I managed to see was
Unable to create file or directory(It looks that the program is looking
For an Installed system to Update)

What I would like to see Improved (Lots of Work) is
If People have more than 1 Drive---To show the drives ie Disk1 Disk2
To Possibliy show the Partitions on that Drive.
Have a YES or NO on Each Action,so we could go back,or Quit

I know this may be a lot of work.....

You hit a Newbe with me,I'm 70 years old,using compters
for about 30 years,Linux for 2,but still willing to Learn.

The biggest reason People are afraid to try Linux
is when they Hit the Return Button...It may Erase the Whole Drive.
So If the Menu Says ....Formating /dev/hda12 (Y/N)
Then they have a chance to back out.
Sorry for the long letter.

Donald
