Accidentally Deleted Partition

You will be able to boot a Linux environment directly from the CD and you won't have to worry about tunneling access from a virtual machine to your actual hardware.
Plus, the LiveCD makes a handy system recovery tool if something bad happens to your system. It contains some useful partitioning tools and such.

Okay, thank you, I'll see if I can get one and I'll post back when I'm able to use the tool. Thanks for the help so far.

How does Knoppix compare to Ubuntu??
I loaded Ubunt up and didn't have the patience to search for wireless networking drivers, etc...
Seemed like a great interface though, and I still have the disc in case I have an emergency. I need a bigger HD so I can just keep a separate OS partition.......

Chronon, you're probably going to hate me for this, but I went ahead and tried the virtual machine.
To be honest that has worked fine and it has USB access.
But I've failed miserably at trying to install libusb. It has been nice messing around in a new OS though, and I personally have enjoyed it. I'm going to stop for now, I need some sleep. I appreciate the help.
Do you know if the windows version of the e200 tool was abandoned?
Chronon:
I can only quote this from the download page for e200tool: "Windows executable link removed since it hardly works for anyone. People have a hard time to get this to work on Windows. You need libusb installed, but that's where my skills ends. On Linux this seems to work a lot easier."

Well, I'm not that much in a hurry now, but I'm still having trouble installing things for Linux, do you have any tips for me?
From what I understand I have to build and make my own install file, but I know next to nothing about Linux, so I'm just fumbling around until I get it right.
