Windows XP: Ghost recovery abandonned. Reinstalled from scratch. Drivers installed, no updates or apps.
Ubuntu: Installed from scratch. Currently upgrading. No drivers, no apps.
Cause: Something ran FSCK or CHKDSK during a reboot in Real Mode on my hard drive. My Real Mode BIOS only thinks my 300GB hard drive is 137GB. FSCK/CHKDSK made it so and trashed the partition table. Data was unrecoverable, with a loss of one month's data and all the work on this week's comics.
Jenn: Had a nervous breakdown trying to restore from a backup that no combination of OS and Software would allow. Breakdown did not impress the roomies one bit.

Bed now.

Up late, woke up late, fell asleep in shower, rushed to work, forgot my breakfast lunch AND pills.

And I've only been up an hour.

Gonna be a LONG day.

The next two weeks will determine if I stay in Washington forever-ish, or head back to Texas next year. Good vibes greatly appreciated.

So the solution to my Linux problem is to go into Windows, install a driver, press a button, then boot back to Linux. Huh, wha?
