Hello,
Yes, I have tried rebooting repeatedly, but neither device is
recognized by FC3 after downloading the updates. I gather that others
are having similar problems, though there seems to be a workaround
that looks like voodoo to me. As much as I would like to contribute,
this is beyond me, so I will have to wait for those of you with more
brains than I have to find and repair the problem. Hopefully, I won't
need any backups for a while.
