unbootable HD, the solution

[Chuck Hallenbeck]

Hi gang,

I promised to let you know the solution to my puzzling problem a
week or so ago about the unbootable hard disk. It turns out the
guy at the computer store knew enough about Linux to look beyond
his initial impressions, and discovered a defective hard disk
after all. He replaced the HD with a new one and we are out of
the woods at last.
