That was my gut reaction, but then I ran man on somethign, and it

Oops, that was supposed to include the logfile quote:
Starting the second stage of the update at Mon May 22 18:16:12 EDT 2000.
Updating version
Running mkserv.
Could not initialize Zephyr library: Hostmanager not responding.

wasn't a miniroot update either.
