Thanks for the pointer!  This has been a frustrating process, but I finally
(after about 6 attempts) got it to a point where I can at least boot into
the GUI successfully and see it on my monitor.  I still can't get it to
accept the resolution settings that the monitor specs say are the optimum,
but I'm going to continue tinkering...
