  Done. Set up. And run as loop.

  Everything I have tried so far has worked.

I am using the loop on an AMD K6, 600 MHz, 256 MB RAM, Diamond Stealth 2
MB video card, and with a RealTek ethernet card (I added the module for
that).

I have been on-line OK.

I have added the mc.tgz from the BL3 add-ons page. It all works, and I
still have over 12 MB available, even after adding my own background
image for the JWM.  (http://www.ausreg.com/files/fract030.gif)

I haven't added anything else because it IS a beta-test, but it booted
and ran like a champion.  :)

The extra utilities with JWM are a nice touch.  

I know it's early days, but it looks like you are on a winner !

I suppose the fun will start when each of us starts to add our own
favourite applications.

Regards,
         Ron
