Thanks for all the help folks. Really apppreciate it.
As it turned out - the makeworld took 5.5 hours.
everythign went fine, except right at the end - MAKEDEV all has either not
built a suitable keyboard driver, or mergemaster was not done properly. Now
I have no keyboard, but do have a mouse pointer of sorts. Pressing keys
interfers with the mouse activity - but can't type so can't access the
system.
So might start from scratch now I know what happens....
I know about the date/time thing. y2k in the ELM I'm using on the original
server.
cheers
