I do have "hi-speed" [koff-koff]--altho it really is deadly
slow sometimes. i think at least one problem might be that I
just never had a bootable file. There have been lots of
other disruptions at my end, not worth mentioning. Onr
solution might be to d/load the 44M bootable cdrom. Another
thing is that in /usr/share/***/cvsup/, i found the
stable-cvsup file to upgrade to [[i think!] 8.0-R FreeBSD],
so i may be able to do this as per usual, over the wire.
I really appreciate your thoughtfulness,
