goldfinger, I have followed your instructions in the EDIT at the end of your Reply no.2 in this thread and am posting the output from the terminal below in response to typing in the commands you asked me to run. You will see that I have now created two new folders Music and Pictures from MusicPictures, and deleted the later in DATA. Needless to say, after fixing the MusicPictures error, I was still unable to boot normally into LL, just hanging for ever at the boot progress screen. As you see below I don't have a separate
/home partition...
(Edited by gold_finger eliminating some output that was not needed.)
