So I've let the dcm take effect, reboot the box since it was in a
useless state, and have now tried to update to 9.1 again. Following
the instructions that Greg sends out in his e-mail yields the helpful
message of "It appears you already have this update."
How do I force it to reupdate to 9.1 again? Or better yet, with it in
such a busted state, how do it just get it working again? I needed
this machine working last Friday and I desperately need it working
today and from where I stand, there isn't anything obvious for me to
do here other than wish the stupid thing were in pieces.
