Heh. I actually have a Voyager sitting in the garage. I've never
plugged it in or turned it on, but after this thread I'm wondering if my
rewrite of the setup code will have to entail dragging it in and trying

Incidentally, the rewrite is looking very promising so far. Apparently
there is tons of odd or just plain dead code lurking in setup.S.
