	Nope -- too hard to get hold of the  Olivetti's weird ram module --
	and it's too expensive for me.  

	Anyway, as Ollivier said, it's up and running !  

	I'm currently rebuilding my kernel, and it's been going for 2 hours
	now  :-| I think   I'll keep a copy   of the 2.1.0  sources  on the
	desktop machine!
