I deleted all partitions. Then when I got to Partitions.ChangeType I 
was at a lost because it required a "from" type and I had none to give. 
So I went back and created a partition of some type just to have 
something to  pass to Partitions.ChangeType. That's the meaning of 
"dummy."

Just one disk for now. I gathered from other posts here that Oberon 
simply won't boot from disk. I can live with that. That's the meaning 
of "gave up."
