Thanks for the email. I've currently given up on trying until Edgy comes out.

I made too many coasters out of both DVD-R and DVD-RW disks. The RW disks are
totally nadgered and cannot be reformatted.

I'm currently taking my isos around (on an external USB Hardisk) to my
brother's and burning there as he's still got a working Breezy install.

I'm not updating my kernel because of other problems with the latest Ubuntu
dapper one... everything else is working so I've pinned it and the xserver.
I hate rude surprises like X not starting after an upgrade.

Anyway, thanks again.
