For the most part, yes. When it comes to aboot/MILO, though, we'll have
to handle that part. Honestly, we could probably get some text from a
RedHat user somewhere that could help (at least with the more generic

Take the PC164. It's got fantastic bandwidth for RAM and is just a nicer

definitely use one here!

When it's done, let me know or forward it on (please convert to SGML if

I'll yank this down and install it into the page. I'm bookmarking your
page right now.

some more updated procedures anyway.
