Sweet! 
Hopefully if the college lets me use their alpha box. I'll be able to create 
an
alpha iso for sourcemage too. I'll let you know of any other hicups I run in

Thanks for the step-by-step (at least as far as you got) I'm glad people like
you exist that write things down as they hack. I have to try really hard to do
that :)
