Please don't think I am unhappy with your efforts at making that BL 3.4 image. Its great and the next thing I may try is installing some of the optional packages into that extra 100 meg of disk space. Is there a package for Firefox and/or Opera?

Sindi got Opera (7.23) static running, but it apparently didn't work very well. Steven's made a new version of links2 (graphical) available that seems to run well and handle alot of what the web throws at you. He gave a link for it awhile back when Sindi asked: take a look over this month's posts and you'll probably find it. It's _not_ the one at the add-ons site, btw. That's an older version. But be aware that, to run the newer one, you'll have to upgrade libraries using directions Steven recently posted. Those same libraries may even enable you to run Firefox: feel free to experiment and let us know if it runs. BL3 is still somewhat lacking in the full-featured-graphical-browser department.
