Well it appears to be working with the drives from the original box
plugged in and hanging loose. The computer booted normally except
for a long delay with time outs when it couldn't find my NFS and the
files it calls on start up.
That was because it was seeing ETH0 as ETH1? Once I realized that
and fixed the configuration things began to work as expected.
Next to reassemble things and put it back in the normal location
with it's usual peripherals, display, keyboard, trackball, etc.
Thanks to all.
Bob
