Thanks Sandy!

Well, it has been almost 5 full days of running the new Supra driver called
SupraMount and I haven't experienced one HANG nor even one Guru!  (Ah, there's
a piece of wood - knock, knock.)  There are two things to note, and they may
not be important since the "bug" is ill understood.  The bug is/was that after
a countless number of "dir"s or disk accesses of some sort the machine would
HANG.  The cursor would return with no prompt.  You could move the mouse
around, hit return, go to other windows (which would be frozen but otherwise
intact).  No guru.  A warm boot would reset everything.

The Supra driver now runs as a "task" and no longer requires the "supra.0"
file in "devs".

And 2, per Supra instructions I removed the RAM expansion this round and
waited 10 minutes before and after disk re-formating before reinstalling the
RAM and running things.  I find this BIZARRE - but what the hey!
