Yes, I did try Woody.  Once again, I get problems with the networking.  
Networking is up from the CD, but dead when rebooted from the hd.  Using CD 
in rescue mode gets it up again.  Some pcmcia nic config thing... I'm in hte 
middle of trying Mepis at the moment.  I'll see how that goes.

Thanks.
