Dad started his system this morning, before all the neighbours turned
their air conditioners on and it is running fine except that partition
/dev/sda1 & the grub loader had disapeared.
Don't you just love Queensland's 3rd world power system.
At least he has had plenty of experience installing ubuntu so he is a
happy chappy (for now).
Thanks for all the advice
