	A complete reload solved it - my deduction is that I had not fully cleared the hard 
drive before reusing it.  This time I used Partition Manager to take it right back to one 
continuous unallocated block and I now have sda1 with an ext4 file system and the boot flag, 
sda2 as an extended partition and within that sda5 as linuxswap.  Out of curiosity, why 
sda5 and not sda3?  But it boots and that is sufficient for me.
