Gotta go to Valley Antiques to put out some new stuff and do a bit of rearranging. Back asap… 😉

Now to see if I can move my home folder from this machine to the new one over the network. But that will be later, after we get back.

Resize worked fine. Took some time to get through the check disk and then after a couple of more restarts tis all working as designed.

Well, Ubuntu installed and runs fine. Vista is having to run check disk prior to restarting, and is taking longer than the install did. 🙁

Haven’t tried the resize function before. Guess I’ll see if it works as advertised. For now am gonna lie down and read a bit.

Got the latest Ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/maverick/alpha3 resizing the Vista partition and installing on the new computer now.

Downloading the newest alpha Ubuntu release. Tried the previous one and liked it quite a bit more than 10.04. Gonna install it when done.

Getting a very late start today. Hoping I’m caught up on sleep. Got nearly 12 hours last night. Still tired but feel better than yesterday.

At least there isn’t water in the kitchen floor now…

Ended up crashing and just got up to turn the water back on, and it all seems to be holding. Will check it out further when more awake.

Also suspect this means that the pipe I ran 20 + years ago is in need of replacing. Am so NOT looking forward to that job…

Figure I have another half hour at the very least to go prior to putting pressure back on the system so most likely gonna be late tomorrow.

waiting for the glue to dry now to see if homemade fittings are gonna hold pressure so I can get a shower and go to bed.

What started out to be a easier than lately evening at home has ended up with water in the kitchen floor and plumbing fittings in the lathe.
