I know just barely enough to tell you to STOP and wait for expert advice |
| 14 |
before you attempt ANYTHING. I can't give you any correct advice except |
| 15 |
that you should make a complete backup of your entire system NOW because |
| 16 |
your chances of doing what you want are very slim before you destroy your |
| 17 |
operating system. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
For now, just make complete backups of everything -- and then do nothing |
| 20 |
more until an expert gives you better advice than mine. |

No, really, don't do it yet. Really! (And burn a bootable gentoo rescue |
| 23 |
CD/DVD while your machine is still working.) |

Any experts out there who can give better advice? |
