That's PODGE.MIT.EDU, not HODGE. Podge is the one next to the NeXT
machine, on the western side of the office (the side closer to the
door).
Specifically, test 2 fails repeatedly; we tried using both the thin
wire and thick wire ethernet interfaces, with no avail (we also tried
all the suggestions in the manual, but no dice). The bootpath was
also set to nil; we booted vmunix manually - and though it fails the
first time, it will boot vmunix on the second trial. Furthermore,
when the machine comes up, it talks to the ethernet fine, even though
the diagnostics fail.
