Re: Some place else to download a2gameserver?

I was hoping that I could post a success, but it seems that we still
not quite there yet. The Apple now loads the sos file, and as far as I
can tell it gets fully through the Init script the the 'END'.
But then terminal reports this:

...Sometimes there are less 'Checksum Failed' error lines and a
'BufferOverflowException' line like this:

...the Apple II screen sometimes fills with some garbled text with
large areas of flashing D's (and sometimes some C's). Sometimes the
screen then changes to a full screen of flashing D's (sometimes it
doesn't), and sometimes It just hangs at the 801G command????

On the Apple II side the errors/results don't seem very consistent.
