Nope, just gumming around and not paying attention to what or where I
was?  Maybe a low blood sugar?  I some times get down to 40 or 45 before
I realize it.  At least I'd like to blame all of my mistakes on a low
bG.

SuSE runs, except when it loads I see "warning" & "failure" flash by as
it loads.  Waswn't it DOS back on the 286es that you could push the
<Pause> button and it would stop?
