BOOM! Problem solved! Using the advice of:
Jason Fordham
Kent Palmkvist
Brian McGovern
and Jordan K. Hubbard
Thanks guys! 1) I had a bad transfer (somewhere, either during FTP or
with my Kermit download). I tried once more, but
this time I used FTP straight from my PC (I've got
Windoze set up with a SLIP connection)
2)Now things seem ok. Binaries installed ok.
However "ps" seems to be broken.
It gives some message about proc...I've got to start writing these things
down. :-)

Still would like to here something on this one. It's a shame to see a
16Mb SIMM go to waste!
Now that I've got it up I'd like some advice on 2 things :
1) I need SLIP badly. I've read the FAQ and I'm still a bit confused.
No, I'm still a lot confused.
2) Anyone with advice on multicast I'd love to hear from you!
Thanks in Advance,
Craig
