Read of your Bridgeboard dilemma.  I have had many problems with my
XT Bridgeboard. It would boot sometimes, others not at all.  Binddrivers
wouldn't work, and then I'd get library not found errors.  Intermittent  
problems are hardware related, and after reseating the chips and messing 
with the cabling, I resolved myself to resoldering all the connection
points on the board.  My Brdgeboard hasn't failed in almost a year, now.
It went from 20% to 100% reliability.

While this shouldn't happen, it's not all that uncommon. If you deal
with electronics very much, you will see this in the future.  Hope
this helps.
