Installed perfectly on the first attempt. DVD-ROM drive is bootable. I used a Linksys PCM-100 NIC to do a NFS install from my fileserver.

I am using a SS1021 Wireles NIC to post this message.

The only flaw is when I go from X to a console, then back to X the display is dim. I don't know why, maybe someone can tell me how to fix it. I don't have a way to test the modem, but I assume it should be ok.

The Floppy even works like it should.
