Give me a buzz (07718 194 661), and we'll sort something out.  If anyone
gets lost on the way, or is late, give me a call.

> I've been playing around with meshAP on the two laptops, and managed to
install the latest version (v8) onto the harddisk.  Unfortunately I get
kernel panics when the machine is booted with the orinoco card in.  The
major problem with meshAP is the total lack of documentation, it's pretty
hard to figure out what's going wrong if you haven't got the first idea what
it's trying to do.

Yeah, I couldn't boot MeshAP on Friday night on my laptop.  Didn't matter
what card I used either (Lucent, PrismII, Cisco).  I'll burn off a few
copies of OpenAP and MeshAP now.  BTW, Rob, your laptops will be useful, as
we'll need something to do ping tests with that's not using MeshAP.
