	I can already get to the main console on the Soekris. Problem is 
that it goes south on me. I've determined that while everything is happy, 
I can <CR>~^b and get to the kernel debugger fine. However, once it locks 
up, all bets are off.  Its the machine that has 7.0 on it to do remote debug
that doesn't have any sort of serial ports. So if I need a 7.0 to remote
debug with, I'm at a loss. If its just a normal serial console on the
Soekris, I have it, but once the kernel locks I can't even bring it to
DDB.

	Fortunately I have dual internet. Wireless Broadband and Satellite.
Satellite has been flaky (I'm not sure if its the antenna, or the lousy
lousy lousy weather the last week). Wireless Broadband went down for an
hour when a set of backhauls locked up at the SAME MINUTE.

	If I need anything computer oriented, I need to know ASAP since
the nearest "REAL" computer store is 90 miles away.
