The above system was reported down with hardware. It appears that the KSL 
lock was possibly defective, and that the 9 gig hard drive was defective as 
well. Fighting the clock, in preparation for a 3:30 class the following action
was taken. I was able to remove the lock, and replaced the 9 gig h.d. with a 
4 gig. The system is now crashing with possible memory or system prob's. Due
to time constraints, Joe pulled an identical ultra5 from the 56-129 cluster,
and placed it in the M56-114-1 classroom. Joe will be putting the replacement
9 gig h.d. back into this system, as well as checking out the memory. Once
this system is fixed, both systems in question will be returned to their
original homes. Joe has also contacted KSL re: the defective lock.
