    Ok, after many years without touching a Symbolics, I've acquired 
    a 3620 with a 8.3 distribution load which I'm unable to get setup. 
    Each attempt to "define site" fails with a call to string-length with 
    an integer arg (not a string). I'm failing completely getting a site
    setup.

Are you booting a distribution world or one already site configured?  There
were numerous problems if trying to reconfigure and already configured world.
Failing a backtrace, it is hard to same more.

    Does anyone have a clue as to what's going on here????

    Thanks in advance,
    Greg
