Comments/Problems:
1. Booted, boot messages were going by, right after hardware detection the
screen went blank. No recovery possible. Manually rebooted.
2. Booted, boot messages were going by, right after hardware detection the
screen went blank. No recovery possible. Manually rebooted. Vowed to remember
recovery mode next time. ;)
3. Booted recovery mode, boot messages were going by, very quickly screen went
blank. No recovery possible. Manually rebooted.
4. Booted into Windows to make sure my other partitions were still okay. They
were. Are. Whew.
I am currently assuming that the issue is my NVidia GeForce MX200 DVI-output
video card and Gateway FPD1500 LCD monitor, which many Linux distributions have
historically had a problem with (as the monitor reports its' settings
incorrectly). XandrOS and Linspire have no difficulties with this video
hardware, but Suse 8.2 and Debian woody did (both required manual modification
of X config to work). I assume that if I were able to boot Debian into console
mode, I would be able to work around this issue -- sadly, recovery mode does not
appear to allow this. Would be grateful to learn that I am wrong.
