Hmmm... That at least confirms my suspicion about etcdist... What I
have on my system right now is very nice, and beyond that I have emacs
and gzip and I am messing about with smalltalk (Though I get a Malloc
error right off the bat... either I've got the machine description
wrong, or just plain not enough memory)

I think I will apply patch-kit 2.3 and go from there... right now
things are pretty stable here, and I get the impression 2.3 will fix a
few things that still give me troubles...

Thanks for your time...

(BTW Dave: I will get that partitioning doc to you soon... got wait
stated because of my S.O.'s exams...)
