Yes, "drastic" was the word I thought of
when writing the suggestion.  I don't know
what is causing the problem so I suggested
something drastic that might get around the
problem.  If anyone knows specifically what

then that, of course, would be preferable to
reinstalling the software.

Thanks for your "system mount" reset command.
