	Ah, that explains it.. I'll have to go build a machine
that can run current (the current system is used in support of
commercial products, and can't track current.)

- 2. to setup a serial console that way it would require having a monitor
- anyway, so why not use it? (:

	Yup, it requires a monitor for a few minutes, but then
the test machine can go in my test rack, and be attached via my
console server..  Fewer monitors in this little 10'x10' room
(with 20+ computers) is a good thing.. :-)

- once you mentioned netbsd/hppa is it available anywhere?

	Right now, it is mostly vaporware.  Hopefully we'll get
somewhere beyond that moderately fast..
