hi dave,
thanks for your input. unforch, each time lizard freezes/crashes/fails
i need a copy of your /tmp/lizard.log in order to figure out what
happened. you can get to a shell in VC2 and log in as root; then mcopy
/tmp/lizard.log a: and hit enter. you will need a floppy in the floppy
drive.
if you just try it again, it doesn't help me or you because the bug(s)
you find will still be in future builds. when you find a bug, i need
you to document it before you go on.
