First, thanks to Jerry Bezencon for confirming that 3.2 Final includes the fix for Dirty COW - that's great. Thanks for the command line as well.
Second, thanks to torreydale and LL-user for pointing out that I have muddled my terminology. Thanks for the useful hints as well.
I did install LinuxLite a few years ago on a new PC but found problems converting all my data (especially loads of Windows short cuts); getting network sharing working; and running some critical software under Wine, so gave up. I thought I might try the latest 3.2 and then maybe move on to a USB install which will save me having to install another hard disk and allow customisation.
As Jerry has now confirmed 3.2 Final includes the Firty COW fix I think we can now close this thread.
Many thanks guys
