     I hope so! Even X-box runs AmigaOS. I got the A1 to boot OS2.1,3.1.3.5 or   
   OS3.9 now! Oh where oh where is OS4 ? Latest rumour is -- Hyperion is   
   waiting for SNAP PPC (imbedded device) for porting to OS4. Getting close to   
   Beta testing time, huh?

     Well found out that Mozilla doesn't handle very well, but Konqueror does!   
   I downloaded 'test.img' in Moz and it thought it was a link?  This file is   
      
   ...dd if=test.img of=/dev/fd0 ...to the floppy to test flash rom. U-B00t:   
   ] fdc boot 500000 0

   OK

    The '0' tells you that it's unprotected and flashable rom. Last night we   
   had our fourth rolling blackout. I'm passing on the flash rom updates for   
   now! =:o

     Don't know! The current server is serial port and I get kernel panic at   
   bootup. This new one is suppossed to be USB port for my model. Another item   
   I'm trying to learn among 98 other linux things!   
      
     I did, recently, "apt-get install ntpdate." Ntpdate & Ntp-simple   
   sychronize the system clock to internet. I used -- time.nits.org -- in   
   $server instead of 'time.usno.mil.' ..............
