Do I run this from...'within' the 'chroot' thing, or just in the live USB after i do 'luks open'?

I don't know? I don't know where or what any of this should be doing, or it I'm doing the right thing.

I'm sorry, I'm not quite understanding the instructions here?

is "rpm -q kernel-core" a command I should run? if so, where/when?

"e-install the kernel-core package to the vmlinuz " may as well be fre nch to me - I've been using linux for 4 weeks now and I'm sorry but I just don't understand this rapid fire technical jargon.

Not an option. 

If it comes to that, I'm done with my linux experiment. Theres a month of  work gone into fixing all the bugs and glitches and problems I've run into, and the whole reason this thing started was because I couldn't get snapper to work properly to back up that work, and I was trying to troubleshoot that by testing it on a clean fresh 'test' installation, so I wouldn't risk my main one. Instead, it's killed it.
