OK, thanks.  I was suffering from cerebral flatulence and trying "mount
/cd9660".  :)

My network is up.  I can ping, telnet, ftp, etc.  Once I sucessfully
compiled my kernel, the networking stuff resolved itself.  Everything seems
to be working OK.  

Is there any pressing need to recompile without the IPV6 and the excess
stuff you mention above?  If there's not, then I will wait as my 486 seems
to take about 4 hours to build and install a new kernel.

Your help has been invaluable and I thank you.  Now I'm off to DNS (which I
know nothing about either) :)
