Aha!  Thanks.  It's been a while since I tried the install (the weekend
1.4 was released), but I seem to recall that the installer allowed you to
drop to the shell prompt at some point if you wanted, so I could run that
command there, correct?

Thanks again,

I was at the local eatery, alone as usual, washing down a root beer float with
straight shots of bourbon when she walked in, red-haired and stacked like the
Titanic.  She spoke.  "I need a cheeseburger with everything and a lawyer...in
that order."  "Jake, get the lady a cheeseburger," I shouted.  "Edmund T.
Bradley, counselor at law," I murmured, dusting the bar stool off with my
hanky.  "How can I help you?"  Okay, so I'm not a lawyer, but I watch Judge
Judy all the time.  How hard can it be?
