I don't have any problems with starting up, I've managed to get around
the various problems there, partially by using the hack of starting each
server *without* SingleCard one at a time first, to initialize the VGA
BIOS cleanly.

The problem still remains that once the system is up, it will crash
periodically, with no obvious trigger event.  It's crashing so hard that
KGDB doesn't even work.

I'm out for the weekend, so I have Monday through Friday of next week to
try to resolve this, or I'm going to have to go down there and cobble
together as many single-headed systems as I can manage from the few
scrap bits of hardware they had in the pictures I saw.  Not a good
solution. ;-(
