Thanks Joe,
I tried following what you did but kept making a mistake somewhere. I
decided to play with FC13 for a while. CentOS 6 should be out in a
couple of moths and since I'm going to be upgrading my drives I
figured I would just try again with later.
Thank you for the response, I appreciate the help.
