The rm key.sah commands will make the current unit start from the

Thanks Roy, although that script runs only at power up, i went ahead and took out those remove commands. That didnt cause any problems unlike another suggestion to change the 17 to -17 . That caused major problems to where the keyboard seemed to be connected to an old 110 baud modem.
It would not appear that the linux client is designed for smp processing. Here is a rack of dual athlons we are working with http://tinyurl.com/2eut6 all are running RH9 linux as the enterprise edition of RH9 costs too much (hope SCO does not read this NG). I tried out the linux version of seti but it seems to be worse off then the windows version command line.
