Thank you for your attention.  I still haven't decided what I want to
do with this but I believe my problem is related to a faulty
installation,  The results are ugly.  When I attempted to use your
software to mount my drives it sent an Exit error 1 message,  I
allowed this information to be sent off for a follow-up.  I noted a
comment saying my software Zorinuspect.   package was an unofficial
version (very unlikely since it was downloaded from the Zorin website)
and was therefore somehow suspect in the error.  The report also
suggested that I should now uninstall all 3rd-party software.  Are
they crazy?  All of my software was installed directly from the
software library that is installed with the Zorin installion.

I am thinking that this one of those ugly things I've encountered in
Windows in which one has to go registry skipping to removed now
un-removeable entries which point to incompleted changes from software
programs that attempt to modify settings in an unsuccessful way.  The
program couldn't complete it's primary task correctly,  and it's
unlikely that it is going to be able to recover my system in any
manner more successfully.

That is why I am thinking that whatever software I try to utilize,
add or subtract at this point is not going to be able to fix a problem
generated by another program that failed to complete it's task
successfully.

What I do think I need more than anything now at this point is a
manner in which I can clean the errant entries added to my boot from
your program when it failed to correctly complete it's designated
task.  If you have any suggestions in that area I might find that very
helpful.

As a newbie,  I will say that annoying as this is,  it's also a bit
intriguing as it has shown my some ways it which Linux systems are so
similar to Windows.   :)   I no longer feel like a stranger in a
strange land.

Thanks much for attention and time and I hope that you have an interesting day.

Dan
