That was not useful in my particular circumstances... I had to locate
the mkboot.exe program under cover of a different model off of the
aforementioned ftp site, and mkboot the AXPpci33 firmware file to
the floppy. Booting _that_ got me the results I was after.

If you mean me, my AXPpci33 upgrade was successful (but just in case
I've missed something, what version did you find?) If you mean someone
else, then I'll just go back to minding my own business.
