+I have the extension pack installed, but it doesn't give me access to USB
+devices as it should. After following Dave's advice, it is no different.
+
+Symlinks are usually disregarded by rpm, but if you are going to use --force,
+that doesn't matter.
+
+I will stick with dual-booting; it is a lot faster to start up and to run.
+The time taken in rebooting is soon made up.
