It happens on two different machines, on a virgin install, with the
floppy images downloaded from testing on April 9th.  This is using 1.4Mb
floppy images; perhaps that is part of the problem?

(I tried building boot-floppies, but the build failed for lack of
rawrite.zip and lodlin.zip; I couldn't see where to get those from - is
there a mising dependency there?)

     "Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is
      anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. Is any one
      of you sick? He should call the elders of the church
      to pray over him...The prayer of a righteous man is
      powerful and effective."         James 5:13,14,16
