  It does.  And quite smartly, I might add.  I grabbed several of the pre-
configured kernels that he has laying around there, and at least one of them
(I don't have the names handy) works well as a boot image and the SCSITEST
version will probably work at least as well for a full blown system.  

  Three cheers for Julian.  He came through for me and all of the other folks
who mailed me to commiserate without calling anyone names in public or insulting
anybody.

Another believer in the power of people working together,
