Well, just when things seemed to be going so well, I seem to have had a massive disk failure. I'm running low-level diagnostics, but it looks like a fairly large area of one of my drives no longer has any bits on it. So... I'm going to have to fix this all up tomorrow when I can get a new drive and bring stuff back off tape. This might take a while, as I'm going to take the opportunity to do a full upgrade of the box, which will mean knitting some stuff back together. In the meantime, sorry for the inconvenience. Dave
