How do I activate my sdb5 partition and have it stay active continually? **RESOLVED** Thanks to all.
 

Dear Mathew,

It works again. You can't know how frustrated I have been. I have been
trying to repair the problem for over a year. I have worked around the
problem, however, the extra steps are a little annoying. I am laughing
so much that I am making mistakes while responding. I am so happy.

I don't fully understand what has happened, but I am copying the process
and will study until I understand. If I get confused, may I write to
get a little additional coaching?

total 0

I can't wait to have your understanding. Thanks again friend.

Steven
