I'm sorry that we can't be more helpful, but both of us (Dave McWherter
and Dave Beck) are students who are at the same time trying to complete
important research grants. In defense of our "lack" of support, I
have to point out that, well, it works for both of our ANS 700s (a
150 and a 200). I'm aware (as I am sure Dave McWherter is) that others
are having trouble, but we both have sent out our best ideas. The main
point of this list was to enable the ANS people interested in runing
Linux to support each other, not for Dave McWherter and myself to become
the sole source of ANS "support." What I would recommend, for you, at
this point, is to post, in full, your successes and failures with all the
permutations you have tried and _why_ you have tried them. If everyone
were to do this, we could assemble a large volume of data on what works
and more importantly what doesn't.
