        I have some questions about the procedure you described however
        I will put them off 'til later. While rummaging around for a
        copy of "clonezilla," which I found, I found an old OEM Windows
        XP Home SP1 CD which I installed in virtualbox with more than a
        little angst! My concern being where did it install Windows?
        Hopefully in a vacant space! I will find out when I reboot in a
        few minutes but Windows looks like its working there.

        That's still not what I wanted, I would prefer to use the
        Windows already on one of my hard drives and dual boot via grub.
        I will try the procedure you describe, if I can't manage that
        then the problem will be resolved with an eventual new install
        of F-15.

        Thank you.

        Bob
