  and that did it, thanks.  so now i'm curious -- do you know what
specifically requires the deprecated sysfs format during boot?  i
followed your blog links and i didn't immediately see an explanation
for *why* that fixed it.  again, thanks.

p.s.  there were, unsurprisingly, a number of startup script failures
but that's something i can handle later.
