When I start a new installation of GNC, I go through this same snafu. After I get past that, I immediately turn off running the auto create feature and the start up notes. It was good to have the latter when I was still learning GNC, After that, I had no problems with startup other than occasional lock files because the PC had crashed. This is an old PC that originally ran Vista but is now running Peppermint 10 which is based on Ubuntu 10.04. I've kept it until I get comfortable with the new version. My other PCs are now on PeppermintOS based on Debian.
