WELL, I don't know what to say. I just put the HD in the PC turnedit on and was waiting for the blue screen so I could login as root and type 'init 3'. BUT, guess what happened. A tiny clock appeared at the top left followed by a log in screen and here I am. Happened very quickly. A few seconds. Now, do I dare log out and try to get back or just wait for a reply from you. Yesterday I never did init 3 either. Maybe it is the Easter Bunny. I don't know. I'm a bit apprehensive about shutting off and trying again. What's your opinion?
That's the way it is supposed to work, and since no one recognized the previous symptoms my best guess is that it was some sort of hardware issue. Maybe swapping the drive left a bad connection to the disk or network.

Saga continues. re-booted from GUI and it went to blue screen. Shut down and returned in about 2 hours and turned it on and it worked again. So I guess from what you say this is the way it will be. Unless I shut down from GUI vs. rebooting. BTW, System/Network Connections shows empty box. System/Network Proxy shows box with Location:Default and tick in 'Direct internet connection. Everything else is greyed out. Thanks.
