[Gllug] Mactel Linux problem - Save my marriage :)

[Panos Savvas]

Hi I downloaded the 1.3 branch, however it has been built for PPC (as i
noticed later) which i guess is the reason it won't run on my intel mac.
However the 1.4dev universal branch also does the same.

I might cut my loses as this has been going on for a while and go with
Andrew's suggestion. I would love to find a way to resize the partitions
without doing the MS-Shuffle. I might just try to delete the linux partition
without formating and see if this then gets picked up by the mac disk
utility.

I haven't had to format/reinstall my ubuntu lap top in 2 years despite
making some serious braindead moves ;) I suppose I am starting to take for
granted that my OS problems should be recoverable/fixable.
