I got my info from:
http://linux.die.net/man/8/blkid
"*blkid* is part the e2fsprogs package since version 1.26 and is
available from http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net
<http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/>. "
I also did apt-file search blkid and it showed up as e2fsprogs or was it
e2fs-utils (I forget). The system I was/am running was Debian Lenny x64.
This just shows how little I know about Linux (I've only been dabbling
for 6 months or so). I'll install util-linux next time the machine
start up. Thanks for the pointer.
regards
Simon

Weird is that you think it is somehow a "e2fs-utils" program.
dpkg -S blkid
...
util-linux: /sbin/blkid
...
FWIW, on my VPS running Ubuntu Server 10.10, the blkid executable is part of
util-linux, and installed in /sbin. You might need to re-install it.
