Hi Andrew,

All I get is a flashing cursor after telling the thing to boot
to the grub4dos utility.

And, I had to modify

  fmt.sh

    old 143: sudo $DIR/bootlace.com --time-out=0 ${device:0:-1}
    new 143: sudo $DIR/bootlace.com --time-out=0 ${device%?}

    old 154: sudo fdisk -l ${device:0:-1}
    new 154: sudo fdisk -l ${device%?}

No joy.  Rats!
