Thanks for this.  One other thing.  At the moment if I do a df I get:

/dev/hda1             806757  574635   190443     75%   /
/dev/hdc2             479632  371457    83404     82%   /usr/local/store0

I suspect there won't be enough room in the / partition to use apt-get
successfully.  I can probably empty out most of /usr/local/store0.

Is there any way of getting apt to download stuff into store0?

Thanks,

Mark.
