I downloaded the LIVE cd of F13 and ran the "install to harddisk" icon 
on the desktop...

Tried three or so times and each time I got a grub boot prompt nothing 
more....

I was going to dual boot with U10.04 but I ended up blowing it all away 
to allow the F13 installer to install using it's defaults but still 
straight into GRUB no further.

Something seriously fishy with the way it behaved.

But possibly because my computer is stoneaged and I have a 200 and a 500 
GB disk which confused it's GRUB install targetting or something or 
maybe the Ubuntu version of GRUB is / was incompatible with F13.

Sadly I didn't get to the bottom of it.
