i'm sorry i'm such a linux noob. I did as you said...when I created the new user there was a bit about the /home not being properly mounted...so when i try to log onto that user i get cannot enter home directory. Using / then I get Call to lnusertemp failed etc.
Ok I guess reinstall might be best for you. When you do be sure that the partition that contains /home is NOT formatted and is mounted as /home and the partition the contains / (root) IS formatted and mounted as /. This can be done in the advanced section in the install. It is not hard just read and understand the screens don't get in a hurry and just click through. Just be sure the partitions are the way you want them before you commit the install process.
