hiall, again im at a loss as to what all this means: [root@localhost qtparted]# rpm -ivh libuuid*.rpm 1:libuuid warning: user cs does not exist - using root warning: group cs does not exist - using root ########################################### [100%] warning: user cs does not exist - using root warning: group cs does not exist - using root warning: user cs does not exist - using root warning: group cs does not exist - using root [root@localhost qtparted]# im trying to get some of the dependencies to get qtparted installed on my 64bit because im too stupid to be able to figger-out how to access my original drive which still has fc2 on it and cant be mounted because of the same mount point names, but now i just cant solve all the dependencies required. i might attach it as a usb and see what that does> or just ghost this new fc3 installation across and lose all the data ive been trying to keep thats on fc2 disk. thanks david
