Hi Hal8000. Got stuck in this morning and printed out Sudo fdisk -l and this is what I got back from the terminal. I will just put it down as it printed out. OK?

Hope that this makes some sort of sense to you and that it might help you in some way to get a grasp of my situation. I have logged in to the Debian forums and will ask around on there to see if I can get some sort of a walk through with the Debian installer.(it seemed so simple, but wasn't) and maybe I shall be able to have another go. Regards Grandad Walt.
