Chuck,

   With my Linux boxes, I have a three hour rule.  If I cannot fix a Linux box in well below three hours, I reformat the root partition and re-install everything.  The Linux install takes three hours.  The beauty of Free Software is that I have the install media, and there are no licensing issues.
