I have a Multia UDB here that is running slink. I'd like to be able to run
ssh and some of the other non-US programs on it, but there is no
'binary-alpha' directory.

I had the bright idea of trying to compile ssh myself, but it seems that I
need libraries that aren't available either. So, I need to upgrade to
potato so I can run SSL-enabled programs.

Last time I tried to update my system to potato, the clock went all screwy
on me, and I had to wipe and reinstall slink. I upgraded to potato before
I had the 2.2 kernel installed. I also had to use a different MILO than
the one included on the boot diskette for slink.

My question boils down to this: What do I need to do to make sure that the
clock continues to work right, and doesn't decide it's January
1970? Should I make sure I have a certain version of MILO, or did my
previous problem come from using potato binaries with the 2.0.36 stock kernel?

Thank you,
Shawn
