I don't see "Enable Hybrid Boot" in Consumer Preview. I do see "Enable Fast
Startup." Is that the same thing?

That's what I see too. Looks like they have dropped the "Enable Hybrid Boot" term.

Yes. However, I have to send it later.

I tried to send the jpg file as an attachment using Agent 6, but the attempt
fails. Server error. Please send me an email, and I will reply with the
attachment.

I have been trying to send the screen shot, but without success. I will try
again with a smaller file.
