	It did do a complete install -- but it evaporated all of my 
tweaks and data, including even my innumerable choices of apps to install 
or remove, on the T42 as well as on PC #4.

	I tried it in PC #3, which is *not* nearly so expendable, and 
noticed this time that when it gets to partitioning, one choice is to 
"replace existing linux installation" -- which might mean putting either 
an upgrade or a fresh install into the space now used. What became of the 
choice we used to have??

	Btw, I also find, every time I hit the partitioner, it refuses to 
let me increase /boot beyond 200 MB.
