I'd say it listed "dec" approx 15 x's and "jan" approx 8 x's. Guess they're
log entries on the detection of my cd-rw (ide)

When i was starting a Network.img (floppy) install/upgrade, noticed also that a
scsi device was found (would you like to find anymore) prompt on the drakex
screen. Will be waiting to get another piece of h/w to perform the upgrade
to ensure the new fixes to work as effectively as the iso2 image install does.
Looks good. "Many" will be happy because of this!
