Magically Fixed: Re: Stupid Dual Boot Slightly OT question

[J]

Thanks for the suggestions... magically, and mysteriously, Windows
will now boot (and don't ask, because I have no idea.  It just started
working... maybe she had hibernated it instead of shutting down and
the resize screwed that up or something... I have no idea...)

And yea, I am quite surprised.  I still wish they'd waited until I
could get down there to walk them through it, BUT if my incredibly
computer challenged mom (think "Hey, my computer has a cup holder"
challenged) can install and get Ubuntu 10.04 running on her own, I am
just in awe... I really am.

Frans, thanks for the link to that forum post.  I don't think that was
the issue in this case, but I'll keep that link on hand for future
reference (they have two laptops, and one now sports Lucid Lynx, so
we'll see what happens) :-)

Cheers,

Jeff
