Good to know.  I will try 2.2.26 with the USB zip drive and also with our 
USB external hard drive (80GB, $2 at yard sale) once we find a power 
supply for it, though 2.2.26 won't work with the camera or card reader or 
USB pen drive (all of which work in DOS).

Can you boot to BL3 on the USB hard drive from DOS?  Or load the required 
modules and chroot to it?  (You might need to edit initrd.gz to load them 
in order to boot to it). What power supply does it need (AC or DC, 
voltage?).
