I've actually managed to get in with frenetic escape tapping from switch-on.
The problem was the NullWatch module - the last message I glimpsed on the
screen and the last thing in my PreDesk log file.
The instructions say place it in PreDesk in one part and in Tasks in the
other. I guess it doesn't go in PreDesk!
Removed it and all back to normal!
Thanks, though, Dave, for your rapid response and a few extra tricks I
hadn't thought of - starting at the command prompt and renaming Boot is
suitably sneaky! I think I'll print your post out to have as hard copy for
the next time!
I don't know why the Shift/Boot didn't work.
Thanks again - panic over,
Best wishes,
John
