    Cranking the delay up to 600ms _appears_ to have worked in my case. The
    interesting thing is that this problem did not exist in FC1 nor in
    RH7.3. I can't remember for certain about RH7.2 but I know that first
    it was, then it wasn't and now it is.
    There are several things about FC2 that make me damn glad I still have
    FC1 intact on another drive. Time will tell...
