Executive summary - yes. I've got a version of the loader and kernel 
which support the NCR series. I guess you want the 4 disk version, 
because you ain't going to buy the CDROM first off. I need to know if 
it's OK to make available an alternate 4 disk solution 'for free'. 
Anyone at the Labs wish to comment?
