[Bglug] January meeting

[Robert Gibson]

Jeff / Chris

Thanks for your help. Perhaps if I burn an installation CD one of you guys can help me ditch the 9.10 and install 9.04.
I have done two machines now, but always let the installer do the partition so I think I may need a bit of hand holding for this.
Regards
Don
