I am sorry I made an incorrect statement.  Links2 does run but it comes up 
very slowly.  Checking the "About" in "Help" it says its "Links 2.1pre 15".  
I attempted to access the gmail function but it said "This version of Links 
does not contain SSL/TSL support".  When doing the insmods and then UDHCPC 
command the messages are the same when entering them with the 20 meg loop or 
when starting with the floppies.  Did I mention I am running all this in QEMU?
