Thanks for that, I'll take a look at the links you gave, and definitely get some sighted help on this one as well, dn't want to screw it up beyond repair, and it's highly likely that I would tonight, Lol. Thanks for that and I'll take a look and catch you guys when I get it up and running. Thanks for the help. Take care. Talk to you soon.

Top posted on purpose due to Timothy's accessibility issues.

This looks to be a very cool customize version of Ubuntu. However I
doubt folks on this list will be familiar with it, so I'd recommend:
http://vinux.org.uk/contact.html
and
http://vinux.org.uk/links.html
http://groups.google.co.uk/group/vinux-development
for assistance.

I'd also recommend not trying to do this tonight... either wait until
you get sighted assistance, or until you get information from the links
above. There is nothing worse than trying to install a new distro
without prior preparation & even a sighted person (me) runs into
problems in doing so.
