JAPH. (That's right -- I'm not Really Inexperienced any more.)

I'm not just here, I'm here [perlmonks.org], and here [javajunkies.org] too, I ramble randomly in my philosophical blog [blogspot.com] and my other blog [blogspot.com]. Soon I'll come in a convenient six-pack.

GRUB, MST

[ #19198 ]

Looks like I can get the system to boot after all, I'm just a chowderhead. (Pop quiz, hotshot: What does your system do when you install a bootloader on the slaved HD and power it up?)

Now I just need to pull off the funk-encrusted trick that is known as Dual Boot, and things should be peachy. Reinstalling WinME went off without a hitch -- maybe -- at least, no errors came up. And since my boot partition for RH 7.3 is on the same drive as the partition I set aside for WinME, and booted after the WinME install, I think that all I have to do now is reinstall GRUB. Hell, I might even have that done by the end of today, once I get back home.

In the meantime, there's plenty of stuff to laugh at. Perhaps you don't know the pleasure that is the MSTing of Matt Barringer's Detective , but these follow the same format -- written items, interspersed with statements from a human and two robots. While it isn't an ego-boost to laugh at people making fun of a small children who's afraid of CTW characters, it is definately a chuckle or two. :D
