Same old same old... the box is only about a year and a half old.  I have an
antique Dell P166 that works fine, running a wiki from a basic terminal
configuration.  I wanted to set this box up properly and move the wiki to it.
 Looks like the floppy is gonna be a permanent fixture, if it'll work for a
cpu server, cool, I can live with it.  I'm not going to be rebooting it
often, it'll just be running forever serving an httpd wiki.  (and is there
any way to put images on the wiki pages?)
