- Hmmm - zoo.almanac.bc.ca is a valid address - it's a DOS box in the
- almanac.bc.ca domain - I will check the Waffle setup and make certain it
- uses the full domain address in the future...

- EMM386 is apparently forced - perhaps because of SSTOR being in use, so QEMM
- refuses to load, telling me another memory manager is already resident. If
- someone from novell.com can clarify this for me, I'd appreciate hearing from
- them, as I would indeed rather use QEMM...
