.. and kick the proverbial with not one but 2 distros :)

... better get the those "fluff" patch out quick... and a fix for the
falcon issue might be an idea..

Unless someone is willing to shell out for a return ticket from
Melbourne to Brussels, I cant help out at that end at the moment (even
tho I have everything needed from the net MiNT/ST related a portable
HD, including just about every CVS/SVN available),

But I can help put together a bootable system for a couple of ARAnyM
setups, one clean EasyMiNT, and one updated AFROS. And I presume
something could be done for a Falcon fitted with a CF card..

OK, "fluff" patch in 15 min...
