I booted into W7 and launched IE last night, and then I shut down again.
Then I booted Debian.  This time it worked, but I have no reason to
believe that following those steps is anything more than superstition.

Before that, I had tried a reboot into Debian recovery mode, and I
continued on rather than entering a root password for maintenance.
Somewhere in there it crashed with a log file on the screen.  I don't
know for sure what log file that was nor whether it wrote it to disk,
but I found similar messages in 'messages' from the day before when I
was trying to boot when I rebooted last night.

Here is a section from 'messages' (one of several) where it said "cut
here" (I presume that's important :-) ):

Does that mean anything related to an inability to boot?

Thanks,
