What *exactly* happens, actually? No output at all, or what?

I don't think that it's worth finding out which NT runs on the
Oily. Wayne said that the box fails during the audio test, which
definitely worked on Stefan's Oily. I rather believe that there
is some more or less serious hardware bug preventing the kernel
to come up. Either we find a workaround, or the box should be
returned to "Applied Personal Computing" where we got it from.
Unfortunally the usual half-year warranty has been gone by waiting
for matching Rams...
