I don't have a position on host versus guest to take at this stage.

My point is: If I were you, and if your existing system is still
working at all, I would _leave it alone_ and set up a brand new
machine, configured the way you want to go forward.  Then, connect a
network wire between the two and transfer over your data.  Yes, it may
take a while to move your data, but by doing it this way you preserve
your fallback-and-try-again options.

Tearing apart or reinstalling an existing machine before the next one
is up and ready is too terrifying for me to consider.  It may cost
more, but (IMO), hardware is cheap, and preserving that fallback
option is worth it.

Best Regards-

Tim
