I did that as posted previously... that is boot livecd, import
badpool, export goodpool

but on reboot I just get a grub prompt.

But I jumped the gun and just started over with a new install.  Didn't
seem to be going anywhere with my experiment...

I believe as you found that it is a working method and that I did
something or several somethings, blundering around to cause my own
problems.

Once I get the new install going... I may try it again just to make
sure I can do it.

Thanks for your patience and the time you put into answers.
