Phil: I think I tried that, Saturday afternoon, but I will try it again, after my daughter gets home. As I recall, that did not get me into the true "root" environment, but into root for the Live CD. I will try it again, with each of the 3 Live CD's, and report back to the list. When I tried to edit one of the configuration files I need to edit, it was a different configuration file, provided by the Live CD. Thanks!
