I instantly jumped onto the snv_137 tarballs and also started dragging in
everything from jucr this afternoon. I even went and grabbed the Steve
Christensen creation called SFW which is really the Companion CD all grown
up. At least I think it is.

What have I managed to get running/bfe'd in 6 or 8 hours and one coffee
pot later ?

So that seems to work. Yes, I still have Solaris Nevada kicking around.

Next item is for me to figure out just how much is closed and what would
it take to get a distro built.
