Thanks - didn't know that. Not sure if that was the case though, since the floppy light came on when I did it. I have now managed to copy it across to a win partition. The problem I am having is that the file is read only. If I make a backup first I get 'Read-only file system'. This seems to apply to the disk rather than the file. ls -l fstab gives -rw-r--r-- 1 root How can I change the system to let me edit the file?
Is this on the win partition you're getting that error? If a partition is mounted readonly you can remount it read/write with mount -o remount,rw /mountpoint //Anders
