Thanks Ian,
	I'm very happily up and running now ! I had a message :

mount_ffs: /dev/sd1a on /:specified device does not match mounted device

but after rebooting I haven't seen it, and everything seems to be working.
So now it's off up the learning curve after only knowing the MacOs !

cheers, Paul
