Tried to roll back to 1.2.1 and got the same results - this made me
think about what I broke since I was running 1.2.1 and realized that I 
upgraded my video from a S3-864 to an ET6000 - never got to try it since
the disk died.

I popped the S3 back and 1.3-BETA installed fine, I popped the ET6000
back and the box locks (no error messages...) while starting inetd...

Frank van der Linder mailed to mention a problem that might be the
one... since my AT/LANTIC lan card in shared memory mode has also gone
belly-up. In ne2000 mode it works fine - so iomemory is a problem.

As soon as I've got the kernel source unpacked I'll try the patch.


Thanks for all the help! - its late and HOT (floating in the 90s here)
so my brain is fuzzy :-)
