Fred (And Brian):

The 145 is interchangable with my 170 in all but two details: processor
speed (the 170 is a tad faster) and FPU presence (170 has one, 145
doesn't unless it's been upgraded)

He's going to have the same troubles I had with the wscons stuff, and
your "rip out the FPU fakery" attempt (which I've got downloading from
the mail-server as I type this - let ya know what happens with it when I
get it down and passed over to the PB) is probably going to fail for him
completely due to the lack of a real FPU in the 145.
