Hi all,
      After a bit of troubleshooting, it has now been determined that software
can not be loaded, via a floppy, for SS4 & 5's. The final troubleshooting was
done with Jweiss, where it now appears that the boot floppy image has problems.
Please look into this issue as soon as possible. We now have a few SS4's in 
private areas that are in need of software.
      The following is what happens when an install is attempted:

      1. after replying to the mask
      2. after replying to the gateway
      3. after putting in the appropriate IP address
         
      The following msg appears:
     
      Requesting Ethernet address 0.0.0.1     Thats it!
                                         Thanks,
                                               --Lou
