Well I found a significant source of my problems with these decTOPs.

Hardware clock is back at Jan 2006.  And many things fail.....

And there is no way to access the bios from a boot sequence.

On the one I discovered this, I watched everything get errors during all 
the reboots a Trixbox install goes through.

Once I was allowed to log in, I ended using

date

to set the system date and

hwclock

to use the system date to fix the hardware clock.

Thanks!
