And thank you for that, Groze.
Yes it turned out that the first restore attempt screwed my partitions by installing itself on the wrong one.
With your fix, I was able to restore my 8.1 image (which remained activated - whew!) then I applied any outstanding updates, took an up-to-date image, and installed a fresh copy of 10240 over it.
This got rid of a lot of issues I'd been having with my 'beta-riddled' previous setup. Boots faster, runs better, and takes up a heap less disk real-estate. I've now updated and imaged that setup as well, and so all is now copacetic again.
Thanks again.
Wenda.
