17 Duncan, I'm very sorry to have overlooked your question (twice)! Please
18 accept my apology. The answer is no, on the box is question, I'm not
19 running an initrd/initramfs, and unless it's necessary I would rather
20 not do so. If I were, this would be one explanation for the problem.

26 Thanks for following up. I'll re-read your posts and get back on this.
27 I haven't been able to follow up on the problem. It's planting season
28 here and beyond doing email I've been kinda tired and not up for late
29 night hacking after a day spent building a greenhouse or whatever. At
30 this point, with a cooler head and a verified back out path, I'm 99%
31 sure I can solve the problem myself. I was kind of freaked out when
32 this problem originally happened since I depend so heavily on the
33 desktop system for company billing, website development, customer
34 support, etc. I guess my original post to this list on this problem
35 showed this and got me and everyone else off on the wrong foot.
