That's the whole point of this drawn-out, somewhat-painful process
of the multiple drafts.  I want to finally produce an set of
well-tested, well-thought-out, expert- and novice-approved
instructions.

Wow, this never occurred to me -- I just middle-clicked.  I'd
completely forgotten that people using non-unix OS aren't used to
that.  


Thanks for the rest of the tips.  I'm definitely starting to think
that one "lilybuntu" section isn't enough; there's too many little
"gotcha"s involved in virtualbox and first-time ubuntu use.  I'll
have a look at what I can do.
