Helios is distributed by, the now named, Perihelion Distributed Software Limited. They are
based at The Maltings, Shepton Mallett, UK. (Nr. Bristol). Provided your files are set up on
the host correctly then I suggest you check the following:

  a) Is your transputer board being reset correctly.
  b) Are your links running at the same speed?

Try issuing a "server -a" which should give you a detailed description of how the
boot is proceeding and help identify where the problem may lie. Mail this log to me
if you are still stuck.
