I appreciate that, but that means I'd have to do a complete re-install from 
scratch, something I had to do 7 times already as its a full day per install 
even when most of the storage is now SSD's in raid10 configs. The latest 
generation of shingled spinning rust is a disaster looking for a place to 
happen.  And that's just the bare metal install, nowhere near a working 
system. To redo this system to the state its in now would take around a 
week. And I still haven't gotten my web page working.
