Thanks Nicholas,

I will work on it over the next couple of days.  There seem to be a lot 
of possible permutations within the first few steps.  UEFI vs legacy vs 
if a UEFI OS is already installed and trying to install legacy etc. etc. 
etc. Let me do some flow charting and see what I come up with.  If it 
can be broken I will break it. If it can't be broken I might break it 
:-)  Perhaps I can prepare some more detailed test criteria/scenarios 
for the first part of the install.
