Hi Alkis: I might have follow your suggestion to use the webchat. I am a total newbie at that -- so I must first learn to use the Chatzilla client on FF. (I don't look forward to that, but it will a useful education!) In the meantime, I followed your instructions. These resulted in a major step forward.
Starting the client brought up the Ubuntu graphic loading screen. However, this was quickly followed by text. After reporting: IP-Config: eth0 complete (from 192.168.0.1) ... rootserver ... filename ... etc. it showed: Error: Connect: Connection refused Mount ... etc ... Target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init. No init found. Try passing init= bootarg. The client went then into the BusyBox v1.10.2 shell It seems to me that I am now extremely close to resolution. What exactly should I do with the info in the above Error message? I appreciate your comment about modifying files. Thanks again.
