Have you tried getting rid of the edits.new file completely (by renaming it to
something else)?

No second copy. There will be from now on, but that doesn't get me out of the
current hole.
I'm not too concerned with recent edits. I'd be much happier losing recent
edits if I could just get the thing to start!
So, the question is, how do I tell the name node to just start up no matter
what?
