Scott,

My system was installed from scratch as 0.79.4 or 0.80. I don't remember the
exact release but I installed it from CD by the very end of August. Than I
upgraded to 0.82.4 and finally to 0.84. This is the 0.84 upgrade that broke
my boot up. The .70< estimate doesn't seem to fit my case...

These problems should be fixed on newer versions.   I think the danger
still is present when you upgrade from 0.70<.
