Thanks, I'll do that.
I have 2 sticks. I thought they had to be in in pairs. Or is that old
stuff from way back?
Here's the results of my fsck'ing from Kubuntu ...
ubuntu at ubuntu:~$ sudo fsck -y /dev/hde1
fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
e2fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
/dev/hde1: recovering journal
/dev/hde1: clean, 193657/1221600 files, 1411292/2441872 blocks
ubuntu at ubuntu:~$ sudo fsck -y /dev/hde2
fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
fsck: fsck.swap: not found
fsck: Error 2 while executing fsck.swap for /dev/hde2
ubuntu at ubuntu:~$ sudo fsck -y /dev/hde3

ext3 recovery flag is clear, but journal has data.
Run journal anyway? yes
/dev/hde3: recovering journal
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes

Dot done anything else yet. Lots of work that I need to get back to.
Just had an extended lunch break on the machine :-)
Cheers
