Cunning moves, Grub-organizer could not write the       grub.cfg. I booted to root. used MC to delete the old file       and Dolphin to rename the grub.cfg.new to grub.dfg.        Did not have to do those cunning moves on the Dell       which does not have a UEFI firmware but BIOS and GPT.               bliss              --       bliss dash SF 4 ever at dslextreme dot com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
