Brian, Sure send me an HTML of the latest walk-thru. The floppy install is a needed howto. I also need to "harvest" more from this thread. I need plain simple HTML and it needs to have wide appeal and take into consideration that DSL was designed primarily to run from liveCD and compressed type installs.

Actually, Aiku, Links just doesn't support cross through. I went on with firefox and see it perfectly. Once again, Thanks for the unhelpful post Aiku!

I have been thinking. (This is dangerous.)

Perhaps the easiest way to keep this FAQ up to date, indexed and searchable, etc. would be to turn it into a wiki.

Is this a good idea?
