	I'll have to post that one machine at a time; somehow (whether 
because of Pan 0.133, or my local access provider, or what, I don't know) 
it makes trouble to have multiple newsreaders running at once.

	Meanwhile, there is a new development. I had burned the install 
DVD on the first disk that came handy, which happened to be double-sided. 
I thought to try a well-used DVD-RW instead, and put that into #4 
machine. It seems to be working. Stay tuned.

	I did try both gparted and qtparted on one machine, and just got 
snarled up; I haven't tried the live CD yet, but will -- unless the new 
DVD really does succeed.
