Didn't work for me.

Worked fine - thanks.  I'd like to incorporate the ctrl-key bypass
or better yet, have it recognize the bios setting to boot from C
instead.
 
So now I'm trying to mod the grub config on the doc, and I type:
   mount /dev/nftla /mnt/doc
and I get
   mount: /dev/nftla: unknown device
but 
   ls -l /dev/nftla
gives
   brw-r--r--   1  root     93,   0 Sep 23 10:22 /dev/nftla

I double checked the bios - it's correct.  Is the doc corrupted?
What's the reformat sequence?

Thanks,
John
