Sadly, you are correct in pointing this out.  I discovered it last night - 
without realising just what had caused it.  You can't even use the F9 
recovery system.  You have to install from the recovery DVD.  That part's 
done now, but I still have quite a lot to do to get things back to where they 
were.
