I hate being ignorant, but what web page?  I went to leaf.sourceforge.net
and looked at http://leaf.sourceforge.net/pub/oxygen/index.html and
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=1446&group_id=13751
but I didn't see what you mean.  Sorry about that.

Just lengthen the timeout to be the same as the previous timeouts,
30 sec's I think, and make the timeout a variable somewhere
so that people can set it as short as 2 sec.  


It wouldn't have been an issue, I'm pretty sure, if the README mentioned
that acfg, apkg, setup.sh, and configure.sh were the keys to building 
the router.  I pieced that info together with a few 'find's to get passed
my confusion, but that's where the string of clarity broke down.

No #@$%^&* way!  Do you mean that I can scroll a terminal
screen?  Oh Jesus.  That's some sick $#|^.
That's sick.

I'll give ya 10 bucks to tell me some more kernel tricks :)

It's no biggy.  I just booted off one diskette so 
  1)  acfg didn't run after logging in.
  2)  instead I saw acfg usage.  
  3)  -i option looked nice.
  4)  I couldn't run acfg -i without loading dialog.lrp and libm.lrp.
  5)  How do I load those?
  6)  I didn't know there was also apkg at that point.  So I kept looking 
      for acfg options to load packages.  It wasn't clear, because I was 
      new and didn't know about the names of the 4 apps you use to setup,
            apkg, acfg, configure.sh, setup.sh

I'll work on all that later.  Thanks for the heads up.
