Steven was suggesting that you install the loop version of BL3.5 to a DOS 
partition (or Win9X FAT partition) and then install to hard drive from 
there.  Do you have a bootable FAT partition?  I forget what hardware and 
OS you said you had already.

What Steven or I compiled, and the best that can be done, handles only a 
minimal amount of javascript.  Versions after 2.1.28 (?) dropped 
javascript support because it was buggy.

I think elinks claims to support javascript but I could never get it to 
compile that way.

Opera 9 or even 8 (uses less RAM) does much better with javascript.
