+I downloaded the latest beta - and checked the sha1sum before
+installing.  It worked perfectly.  I configured eth0 as dhcp, knowing
+that I'd have to get the wifi drivers later.  I did the update
+immediately after the install - that would be the 3rd April, when I
+started this thread.
+
+I've now got those files from /root/drakx onto a usb stick - should I
+start the bug report now with those files?
