OK...  For real this time...

A sample distribution is available on kitten.async.vt.edu:/pub/dist.
If you find any problems with it, please send me mail.

Disclaimers:
	It's a slip link at ~9600 baud.
	The link tends to go down several times a day, usu.
		around 6am and 6pm EST.
	In the evenings (again, TZ==EST), the machine will be like
		a yo-yo as I build and reboot with new kernels.

What's there?  All new binaries, etc...  If you're having problems
because ps doesn't work, grab /pub/dist/bin/ps.  If your mail is bouncing
with "Hard error: address deleted" or some such, but the mail is delivered,
grab /pub/dist/usr/libexec/mail.local.  If you want to try the kernel that's
there, make sure that you build new devices with the MAKEDEV script
in /pub/dist/dev (you can boot with the kernel to single-user and build
the devices from there).  This can get hairy if you're going back and forth
between kernel versions, so I'd only recommend trying the kernel if you
need it.
