All right, I finally bit the bullet and installed Kubuntu on my laptop.  The 
MBR survived, and GRUB updated normally.

Unfortunately, the computer won't start now.  When I boot, I get as far as 
"Checking battery state [ ok ]", and then the computer hangs.  I've done some 
research and found suggestions that this may be related to the NVidia 
drivers, but since this computer has an ATI Radeon card, I doubt that's the 
issue.  I'm booting with noapic nolapic acpi=off options, but none of those 
have done a lick of good.

Any suggestions, anyone?
