OK, thanks, skykooler.....Installed MacFUSE....also, since posting I setup Debian inside Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac...so, can see disks the way you do now there.....and will use it for following your install instructions... Do you think it's OK to use the 32GB Class 10 microSD card I bought last week or should I exchange it for a card that is less than Class 10??? (want to avoid any issues with Class 10 cards I've read about on forums here...) thanks, Mark
