I've tried teh howto before, and have run into several problems in 
formatting the disk.  
one:  the APS formatter is nowhere to be found.  They aren't on jagubox 
or dunkin.princeton.edu.  I got APS powertools 4 from a friend  and have 
been able to create the partitions for my main root and usr partitions, 
but when I partition the iip, I only can do either AUX 1 or AUX 2 version 
partitions.  Also, I get errors when I try to do the 2.x version 
partition, so I have to go with version 1 or a slice.
two:When I boot with the zip in and online, it returns garbage when it 
scans the scsi bus at boot.
three:In the HowTo, it has everything in blocks, while the APS powertools 
is nn bytes or k.

Thanks in advance for any help
