Yes, a lot of things.  :)  Not having run into this problem before, I got a 
bit careless, as this is not a work box, it's an old, dying one used for 
learning.  (I think I just relearned to keep the old kernel. :)  )
Added and configured Samba, SSH, iptables, etc. etc.

Of course---this is the ONE FREAKEN' TIME that I didn't keep the old 
kernel---hubris always comes before a fall.  EVERY TIME  (sorry for 
shouting, but I'm annoying myself) I always keep it for a day or two.

Thanks--I may just wipe and reinstall again, and this time keep track.
