I was surprised Mike that HDD are considered more reliable in the long term than SSD.
Well the DVD arrived from the Linux Shop and I tried it. Came up with the menu that I saw with the USB Mem stick that I successfully created (with help).
Pic of the Menu. Tried both the first two options (no info suppled on what to do!) and neither worked just bringing up error msgs and going around in a loop with the DVD drive making horrible noises. Could read the files on the DVD, see second pic.
Tried the 3 rd option (OEM) and it booted to the same place that I left off when working from the USB Mem stick. See third pic. Its "superuser" again: is this the same as administrator?
Can anyone comment on these Options and why 3? and which one should be used in different circumstances? If this is too complex than just ignore it... I found one that worked.
thanks Gary
