Oy.  I guess it's a good thing I'm back in circulation somewhat, huh?

OK, this is another one of those, "Mike's machine is wierd" things,
but I've never had a single problem with cfdisk---and I've partitioned
no less than four drives with it, and used all of them as system disks
at one point or another, no less.

So what's the problem, exactly?
