Oh, UPS'es..I gather I should have set one for test as latest powerfailure
lasted 4 hours. I'll look into those if they could do.
Discussed the issue with my system technician expert ...a former miner, he had
some hardware ideas to be looked over in homebuildings.
And some discussions of 'hot keys' via some Bios was said, but unsure of
working when the machine completly shut off. Something must go for the button
of the power system to be lit up. But I solve it with some looking over some
electronical schetches in a tip-offed magazine.
Many martianos tankx
