  I just got 3 dn3500's,(sr10.1) two with 170 mg disk and cartridge, one
with nothing. I just successfully loaded bsd4.3_large onto 
a node (first true success). The super user prompt is # as it
should be, the user prompt is $ (should be %) not that
this is a major detail but I found the loading up procedures
arcane and poorly documented and I would like to be sure that
the prompt is not a symptom or sign of a major screw up elsewhere.

 As a side issue - I would like to put up gnuemacs. I can
do it in my sleep on a sun but is there anything to watch for
on an apollo?. I noticed that there are emacs support files hidden
in the guts somewhere? How do I get at them? Do I need them?
