   Sigh -- this probably means I'll have to re-hack the install system
   to add the Linux-Athena "multiple system" installation....

   PS: I still think the RedHat-Athena installation procedure is pretty
   easy.  The only thing that could be made easier, IMHO, is hardware
   detection, disk partitioning, and package selection.

They've definitely done stuff to make the last two a bit nicer.  Check
it out; you may like what you find.....

Also, at this point it may not be too late to add certain hooks into
their install system if it would make the Linux-Athena stuff that much
easier.
