X installation calamity solved. Thank you!



    Thanks to Joost Kooi for suggesting I could bypass my mis-installed
X installation by typing ``linux single'' at the LILO prompt.  This
allowed me to delete some stuff and salvage my system.

    As a minor matter, typing ``linux emergency'' did not work.  I was
able to get on.  Even though I was supposedly root, however, I was told
that all my files were read-only, so I could not change.

   Anyway, thanks again!
