I am a complete klutz--it is a testament to these linux people that you can do this without needing to a single command line, er, command. I know next to nothing--so if I can do it, anybody with patience can do it. You just can't rush through the steps if you're a non computer person. The other day I thought I'd try some command line commands at work, and I decided I'd used the 'super user' SU in front of something... and up comes this scary warning and that I'm going to be reported to the administrator, ha! No, I am a total 'noob' but you gotta start somewhere and on your home PC (after doing several redundant backups) is probably the place for it.
