Felix I got your reply about boot.msg on the list but then somehow lost it so I am replying this way.
And I'm going back to the list where this belongs. Maybe you need a separate folder and filter for my emails.
You point out that it reaches level 5 then reverts to level 3 and then back to 5. Don;t forget that I have to do that manually from the command line to get to a GUI. Or maybe that is not it??
AFAIK, everything written to that file should be done by the time you see a greeter or login prompt. Same thing happens here though, so I'll bet this is a bug (designed to confound the already confounded).
If I can see the boot.msg from the CL I don't know how to copy it into an email.
Anything large you should attach instead of copy and paste in. Surely KMail has a way to do that. With smaller files if you cat the file in Konsole you can select what you want copied with the mouse and then use the menus to copy & paste.
Re: grub. I can't get it at bootup because I can't see it fast enough to know the command.
All you need to see initially is that it's there, then strike any cursor key to halt the timer. Then you have unlimited time to work with it.
After the sys is booted I can call it up in a console but I don't know how to get where I need to be& --help isn't much helpfor me.
I don't know how to fake using the Grub GFX menu in a Konsole, you you have me lost here. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
