Sorry, It gave no error at all, the screen went black and the system did nothing (locked-up), like it could not find the bootsector, thus requiring it to need a manual power-cycle. The system is busy compling xorg-x11, kde-meta et. al. When it finishes, I shall test Richard's theory and let you guys know what I learn, paying attention to the various combinations of spaces and no spaces.
