I'm still determined to give this to you, but I've had several hurdles
that are making this difficult:

- our C3k seems to be taking the Christmas break as holiday, as she
doesn't power up anymore.  Martin Petersen and I have seen this before,
and a bit of shaking and rattling got it to work last time.  

- got a workout by moving the J5k over to my cube, and it now HPMCs
before I see any relevant boot output.  Not sure why.

- I'm travelling until January 2.
