Hi Folks.

You might remember that Bob, Doug and others posted these points about
Squeak's recovery features a month ago (in response to my frustrated
mumblings).  Once again I'll ask the question:  

Could we please include some information about recovering from failure
situations to the top of the Readme.txt file that "ships" with a clean
Squeak image?

This information is invaluable, especially to the newbies that sometimes
make disastrous mistakes and then save them.

Thanks!
