I've figured out a sequence that allows me to get to where I want to be
after I start with no profile:

0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/j64-804/system/main/stdlib.ijs'
0!:0 <'c:/users/devonmcc/j64-804/system/main/task.ijs'
0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/J64-804/system/config/base.cfg'
3 : 0 ''
try. 0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/j64-804/system/util/configure.ijs'
catch. 0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/J64-804/system/config/base.cfg'
end.
0
)
0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/j64-804/system/util/configure.ijs'
0!:0 <'c:/users/devonmcc/j64-804/system/util/boot.ijs'
0!:0 <'c:/users/devonmcc/j64-804-user/config/startup.ijs'
0!:0 <'c:/users/devonmcc/j64-804/system/main/ctag.ijs'
0!:0 <'c:/users/devonmcc/j64-804/system/util/jadetag.ijs'
0!:0 <'c:/amisc/Jsys/J8/DHMConfig.ijs'

The odd, multiple loads of "base.cfg" - which I figured out by trial and
error - seem necessary because, if I simply try to load "configure.ijs", I
get value errors on "BoxForm" or "MemoryLimit" but multiple loads of the
"base.cfg" file seem to get these set, allowing me to then load
"configure.ijs".

In other words, I figured this out after noticing this odd behavior:

[Wed 05/24/2017 |  6:57:45.65 | c:\Users\DevonMcC\j64-804\bin]
>jconsole -jprofile
   0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/j64-804/system/main/stdlib.ijs'
   0!:0 <'c:/users/devonmcc/j64-804/system/main/task.ijs'
   0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/J64-804/system/config/base.cfg'
   0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/j64-804/system/util/configure.ijs'
|value error: BoxForm
|   9!:7     BoxForm{Boxes
   0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/J64-804/system/config/base.cfg'
   0!:0 <'C:/Users/DevonMcC/j64-804/system/util/configure.ijs'

I must have done something to a config file to get in this mess, but I
don't know what it was - I tried commenting out the changes I'd made to
"startup.ijs" and "base.cfg" but this didn't fix my problem.

Any ideas on how I did this are welcome but this work-around is good enough
for me now.
