Sarah,

Thanks for the kind words. The password is "linux". As I said before,
I created this rather quickly, so guess, what, I did not include many
gnome tools such as a control panel to set resolution and many other
tasks. I am building a new version now with these goodies. The bad
part is the exponential growth on the distribution, it now weights
about 900MB mostly because those nice GUI tools have a lot of
dependencies and I can't uninstall certain big packages because they
are dependencies of other packages...

Today I will build the new version and will upload some how tos as well.

Cheers
andre
