Achim, thanks for the update.  I got through most of the install and was
hoping to report success, but my boot partition was corrupted on reboot so
the boot process halts on a kernel panic.  Since this seems to mean I'll be
starting over (I will save my modifications in /etc), I'm going to get the
updated rc4_pre2.  Achim and Daniel, could you make sure that the update
includes Achim's new initdisk.gz (the images folder in rc4_pre2 seems not to
have been updated, so I'm wondering if the ISO has).

Thanks, Murthy
