16 I've done a couple basic alias things here but never grasped it enough
17 to do anything beyond making ls run with -al each time.  I think there

20 My biggest thing, I'm so used to using sdk1 that I'm likely to have to
21 hit the backspace key quite often until this gets sorted out.  My OS
22 stuff is on sda, sdb, sdc and was on sdd.  Anything above that was
23 external.  If one of the storms knocks my lights out, I may get a chance
24 to reboot.  See if that fixes things.
