This machine was running the 0322 SNAP without problem. I'm going to grab the 0322 floppies and try an install with them to see what happens. I'm pretty much at a loss at this point. I tried to grap the crashkit off of freefall, and the directory is empty. I saw a message about a new fixit disk recently. Where can I grap it, and I'll see what I can do with that. Any ideas? bill ---------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Arbaugh "Waste of time is the most waarbau@super.org extravagant of all expenses" waa@dsl.cis.upenn.edu -Theophrastus ----------------------------------------------------------------
