Gee, Chuq "just got" the new Silverling and has already found the thing
doesn't work as "advertised!"  Probably failed the very first time someone
tried to create an AUX partition....

Don't software suppliers do _any_ testing of some of this junk that is
shipped?  Are some of these places completely ignoring an alpha and/or beta
testing phase?  I'm sure it's a lot cheaper to do it that way, but don't they
have any concern for their credibility?
