Actually, it has nothing to do with BIOS. The laptop boots into CentOS
just fine, since CentOS overwrote M$'s boot sector.

Yes, vastly.

Well, grub is supposed to set up the boot sector to find the /boot
partition and when the computer gets there tell it which partition to
boot. At least that's how it used to work. Now things are much more
complicated. So perhaps my question should have been,

Does anyone know what is going on with grub these days?

I don't remember Cray being there. We were in El Paso county from

I "could" work on my front porch, Bob, but I'd have to drive over a lot of 
shrubbery to do it. I'd prefer to work in nearly every DIY mechanics dream; a 
heated / air conditioned personal shop. 
When I retired I had a contractor build the shell of such a shop about 100 ft 
behind the house, I finished it out myself as a passive solar building, and its 
been great for the past 20+ years. Before retirement I worked for years on my 
carport, which wasn't bad, but having a place inside is a big advantage. 

My only regret is that I didn't build it bigger since about a third of the shop 
is a tiny apartment with toilet, shower, frig, microwave, bed and work benches 
for small stuff; electronics, computers, and such.

My wish is that you, and everyone on the list who wants one, has that sort of 
shop eventually.
Gerry

It's pretty common for husbands to have a lot more spats with their wives after
retirement since they're together full time, and I was no different.
When the marital atmosphere turned chilly; maybe I got a spot of grease on her 
precious 240D; I would "live" in the shop for a day or two, and after that she 
would be sweet again.

BTDT in a W123 wagon.  The wiring is frayed and needs to be addressed.  You
will need to remove the door panel to get at the wires through the
grommet.  There ought to be some "play" to allow you to at least inspect
the wires that run through the grommet after gently tugging on them from

[MBZ] White Whale Window Work

2017-11-13 Thread Meade Dillon via Mercedes 
Dieselvolk,

Yesterday during a Family Trip, my daughter rolled down a rear window on
The White Whale (aka 124.193) but then it refused to go back up.  We were
traveling home on I-26 from some time in the Blue Ridge mountains, and at
highway speeds that window needed to be up!

I tried swapping window switches in the center console, but that didn't
help.  Checked voltages at the center console and at the door switch:
~12.8V at the center console, but only ~2.8V at the door switch!

I manipulated the wires in the accordion joint and was able to make the
voltage change, so looks like I need to replace some broken / breaking
wires there.  Re-installed the window switch and held it in the "up"
position and was able to close the window by squeezing that according joint
just right.

Anyone already BTDT?  I'm wondering if I can pull the harness through the
joint to the interior side or the door side to make the repair.  My
suspicion is that pulling the harness to the interior side will be easier.
