It did. So did Fedora. I downloaded the alternate ubuntu,
but haven't gotten it to boot; call that one a coaster.

I have that machine booted onto partlogic 0.69 right now,
with a live CD of Gparted in reserve; the trouble *seems* to be,
afaict, that CentOS made the whole drive one big partition, which
I need to shrink. (It's a 40 GB drive; I propose to leave CentOS
15 GB -- if I can manage not to hose it with one of the
partitioners.)
All clues gratefully entertained!
