15 I switched to grub2 a while back.  I've thought of using something else
16 but I don't have efi and most of the others are targeted at efi.  If I
17 build a new rig, I'll likely use something else.  I'll likely poke Neil
18 until he reveals what he uses or something.  ROFL

22 Glad to help.  I certainly get my share of help here.  :-D

28 P. S.  To all, after my drive move, I copied files that were in sticky
29 mode pending drive moves and now I'm back at 80% again.  So, as soon as
30 budget allows, I get to do this again.  This time I have notes tho.   I
31 know how to do it.  ;-)
