Apologies, forgot to reply all. Sorry for the duplicate email Joost. --
Aha! Chalk that up to stupidity on my part! I hadn't noticed there are instructions on the bottom of the page. I'll give it a try this weekend. Apologies for being a moron, and I thank you Joost for stating "the obvious"... Sometimes I don't see the obvious so well! It looks like I have to edit some files which I don't like doing, but it's a VM for now so it shouldn't be a problem. If it all goes wrong I'll learn from the mistakes before I take Fedora "live" Cheers Joost!
