Thanks for the reassurance! I will bite the bullet perhaps next week.
Does one need to transfer all the stuff from the existing USB "drive"
to the card, or is !Boot the only thing on the card? If so, how does
one get both "drives" showing? To save the manual updating of the new
!Boot, couldn't one use something like SyncDiscs, or would that be a
recipe for chaos?
With best wishes,
Peter.
