This is a good problem.  In my system, I divided my disk into 2
partitions and disable one of them before I shut down.  Then on boot-up,
I reactivate the partition and reboot.

This is a pain but it works.  The solution you are looking for would be
better.  If you find one, please let me know.

Thanks,
Bob
