	12.0S for the 2500 was only done in a beta program and while
the images might have been widely available were not officially supported.

	it was mostly used for protocol testing, etc.. and those that
ran the images and enabled ssh usually saw tracebacks relating to the
amount of time it took the motorola processors to generate a ssh key.
