No worries. If I could figure it out, others would have had no problem.

I found out NOT to install a PAE kernel when offered in the BL questionnaire. I had a kernel panic and system lock-up. Had to pull the battery and ac adapter to shut it down. Booted the live MX19RC1 and ran the MX Boot Repair. On reboot I selected the non-PAE kernel and problem solved.

Coming from my BLaM#!

Life's Journey is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways totally worn-out shouting 'Woo Hoo! What a ride!'

Hey, cool project manyroads. If only for the learning and do believe Bunsenlabs is a good solid distro, though never used an actual install of it for more than a few mins before changing sources on it and then proceeding to tweaking all hades out of it. So quickly ended up being a hybrid OS. Ran it as a secondary OS on that laptop for a good while. Cool thing you're doing and keep it up manyroads, one of the great things about gnu/Nix, anyone is free to use anything from other distro's. One comes out with a really useful tools/software setup or config, all others can readily adopt or utilize it too. Think it's a key contributor to making gnu/Linux that much better. Anyone can take the best of what works from whatever source, pop them in a techno-blender and WHAM, make an awesome OS/install.

Wanted to comment some about things which were said in this thread but it's offtopic, so cross linking to another thread here. If you don't mind, if you do I'll get rid of it if/when asked. :P
