No such luck it seems.  There is no section for
* starting step `setupBootloader'
nor for
* starting step `configureX'

in the ddebug file of the machine in question. :^(  I will gladly
try any other diagnostic, exclusive of re-installing again, if you
tell me what to do.

The file ends abruptly with these lines:

[root@visigoth root]# tail drakx/ddebug.log
changed mode of /etc/rc.d/init.d/prelude from 755 to 700
changed mode of /etc/rc.d/init.d/keytable from 755 to 700

[root@visigoth root]#

Above that it was an account of msec doing it's work, and the last
step mentioned before the end was "* starting step `summary'"
