I miss the wibble space I used to have here on LJ, have got out of the habit & have the past few years been mostly using FB (which is too ephemeral, and Twitter is worse and I just don't get)...
The ephemeral nature of Facebook is why it still isn't the main place for me to post stuff. Sometimes, I want to look back and see what I've said in the past. Or I'll post on how to make something and want people to be able to find it.
ta, I was hoping that the Lenovo W530 created recovery media would allow me to reinstall a factory-fresh setup including drivers etc. However the created USB stick when booted failed to progress past 1st stage bootloader, so gave up for now and have swapped the new SSD back out for the original spinning rust. I think the recovery boot may have failed as I had changed the drive letter for the recovery media install partition from Lenovo allocated Q: to something less "in the middle of the drive letters and a pain" of X:, and the created media is trying to do things with Q: ... Will try again sometime soon...
