Thanks very much for your interesting and illuminating posting.
I actually had a slight kerfuffle on my laptop running vmware.
I rsync-ed the whole thing (/ excluding /proc, /dev, etc) to an external HD,
and in the process some of the files on the laptop seemed to get corrupted
(including the MBR).
It could very well be something stupid I did,
or could have nothing to do with vmware.
In any case, I'm planning on going over to Fedora-5 on the laptop,
if and when it appears.
Maybe I'll try vmware on a faster machine.
