Thank you for your attention to my error/bug issue.
Like one other poster on the other report you referred me to, I have a persistent
live USB version of Natty (actually, Lubuntu 11.04) running now now, as it was then.

I see that poster resolved it by going to a "virtual machine." I'm quite
interested in that option. Can you give me a pointer (URL?) to
reliable info/source for a compatible one that will run a compact vsn
of Ubuntu?

Thanks again!

(Lance, I'm copying you (BCC) on this one FYI. I would like you
to also be on the lookout for a virtual machine boot option for Ubuntu;
I will test it for us!)
