It is more work, because I edited the image files to crop them and reduce the number of colors, this way the files were quite small. See http://www.taleman.fi/ESKK/x128.html I learned that the camera should be on a tripod or you gotta learn how the autofocus works on your camera. I quess you can use a serial console, if you have another computer where you can get screenshots of the terminal window. WMWare or some other meta-os works also, I believe this is the way most istallation images in books are taken. -- Tapio Lehtonen Tapio.Lehtonen@IKI.FI GPG public key from http://www.iki.fi/Tapio.Lehtonen
