Hi all I went  to use my computer and it was playing up so i restarted 
it and a heap of text comes up and it says to hit control D to  exit and 
restart it when i do this it just repeats the same it is very frustrating!
I am now using the live session disc and am concerned i will loose all 
my stuff that had been saved anyone know a simple way of sorting this 
out as I am not a computer expert like some  however I can steer a 
truck. The  wife will kill me if her stuff goes to god!

Perhaps Ubuntu is to hi tech for a low tech truckie

Thanks in advance once again Gary
