WRRRONGGG!!!!

To my horror, there is no BLD.105, or anything even remotely close
to that in /etc!

Yes you are right, there is no BLD.105, I have requested it, but no
one at NeXT would commit to releasing it to me, MIT microcomputer
center, MIT campus consultant, the regional reps....   you get the
idea...

So you could go to your "authorized" NeXT center and plead for
help.  Or if you are gutsy and "know what you are doing" write
your own BLD script.  Since I have not made  a grocery list of
what is on a 105 drive I can not supply you with one.  It is doable
and possible to make most things fit...
