No Powerless.. that is what i would call jumping to conclusion's.I have had my linux disks for about 6 month's, but i havent found anywhere to give me enough advice to install onto my other computer.If i had the advice i would be doing it as we speak, but i havent really searched enough.So if you have any link's that could help me i would be more than greatful.
