No i havent tried make clean but i did do a make depend
and then a make.

What i might have to do is make up a dos (yuk) bootable
floppy with the drivers installed on it to see if i can
access the cdrom from dos.

all other thingsx petering out i will have to purchase
a scsi cd-rom drive.

A beat schizophrenic said, "Me?
I am not I, I'm a tree."

And covered his pants leg with pee.
