Good of you to give the explanation and instructions 
in msg02584.html.  My only remaining concern is that, 
with this being unfamiliar territory with several 
parameters to be adjusted, there appears to be a 
non-trivial risk of a small error leaving the system 
unbootable again.

I'd hope that within weeks or months, Grub will work 
again on the NetVista.  So an alternative plan is to 
simply watch for a hint that Grub is safe to try again.
If I reinstall Grub and find that a problem still exists, 
reversion to Lilo is a known task.

In any case, I've begun to learn about /etc/kernel-img.conf.

Thanks again,         ... Peter E.
