Just a few quick easy steps before performing a complete restore.
Another way Ubuntu is great on the flash drive is if you have to reinstall Grub after making changes to your MBR.
I haven't ran AWN dock in a long time. I should give it another shot!

Yup Gparted is awesome. I burned the LiveCD and partitioning takes seconds. Being that I didn't end up losing any data, the crash ended up being a good thing.
I need to get a new USB drive. But are older systems compatible? USB boot is a bios setting, correct?
AWN dock is pretty cool, but it is very buggy. But if drag and drop into the dock works, then you're good!
