</div>At least it's easier to fix things now-a-days. Back in the late 70's it<br>
was Sys-Gen time. A 4 to 6 hour or more process, and that was just to<br>
get a bootable system. Never mind the data recovery and what ever else.<br>

I didn't think that was going to work, but whatever it did. So; now I can comfortably surf the web and look up how to reinstall GRUB. It's nice to surf on a 22" wide LCD instead of a DROID. :)<br clear="all">
