Now that emelfm has gone & I have gone back to MC.......how is the window size of MC changed? the WM window containing MC can be resized, but MC remains the same size within the window.

I'll submit an emelfm extension shortly (along with a ton of other stuff). As far as resizing/redrawing, did you do a ctrl-l (small L) after you size the window? If that doesn't work, you might try setting up a separate script or menu entry with aterm -geometry [whatever size] and execute mc in it.

Edit: Hmm, ctrl-l didn't work for me. What I was able to do is resize the terminal to the size I want and then start emelfm.bin.

Is this the same kernel configuration you used for 2.1b so its bootfloppy will work with 4.0?
