	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,

	gary
