BL3.4 had links-0.90 (428kb).  
BL3.5 will have links-0.95 (384kb).

None.  I am adding less, mke2fs and e2fsck.  
The stand-alone executables are being deleted 
(which saves space).

No, thank you.  I prefer to test everything myself
before putting it into BasicLinux.

PCnet is not a brand --it's a type (the equivalent 
of NE2000).  The majority of old PCMCIA network cards 
are PCnet-type.  The only significant minorities are 
3Com and Xircom.
