Sorry 'bout that!
Also, in the time since posting the question below, I tried the
operation again (after repairing things), but I did a ALTER TABLE ___
DISABLE KEYS before and an ENABLE KEYS after. This did not work, as
although the DB seemed to be working afterwards,
mysql> describe postsearch;
ERROR 1016: Can't open file: 'postsearch.MYI'. (errno: 144)
So now I am repairing again.
Thanks for your interest,
Jim
