... will be offline for a while as, on the face of it, the Digi TS16
rack (terminal server) internal power supply seems to have died.  I'll
investigate further on Friday, but in the mean time, I'm taking the
boot tests completely offline until it's resolved.

As such, I'll be less inclined to merge new code as it'll get less
testing before being pushed out.

It turns out that I had more time today than I expected to look at it.
What's died in it is the open-frame switch-mode PSU, ITS UO01511120,
which supplies 12V 1.3A to the main board - which looks to be due to
a manufacturing error in component placement.

In the mean time, I've jury-rigged an alternative 12V power source for
the main board in the terminal server, so the boot farm should be back
up and running tonight, provided all the RJ45's found their correct
holes. :)
