Re: Tim Shoppa's last message.


  When I had this machine running, it would attempt to boot from the
Floppy (when asked to do so from ODT). The problem at the time
(which still exists) was I had no bootable media in said floppy
drive, thereby eliciting continued head loads, at about the tempo of
a dirge. Clic, read, 'nothing here...' clic, read, 'nothing
here...' clic, read....

  Had I known Then what I know Now (grateful thanks to Tim and
Megan and Allison) I could have made a bootable disk on one of the
other machines, and gotten it going.

  Aaron's problem is classic Catch 22... and I have just now freed
up some weekend time to perhaps assist him in that regard.

  Note to Aaron: the Docs you gave me are In Process, and will be
returned to you when complete.

  Cheers

John
