Hi.

I re-partitioned and formatted lola's /dev/hdb.  I asked amu if he had
anything on the local disk he wanted to keep and he said no, but it
has since occured to me that someone else may have had some files
there.  If I lost anyone's work, I'm terribly sorry.

If you want to use lola to test installations, please don't use
/dev/hdb2 or /dev/hdb5.  I put a non-Athena 4.2 system on those
partitions, which I'd like to use to build stuff from the source-sipb
locker.

I recommend using /dev/hdb1 as the root for a Linux-Athena 4.2
installation and /dev/hdb6 as /usr.

-Sal.
