Thanks, Phil and Rex. I'm exploring Bioconductor using Knoppix and a persistent home folder, with the intention of having a portable Bioconductor: insert CD, insert USB stick, boot machine. So far, R seems to be working well. But Bioconductor is being a bit of a pain. For my notes:

Two problems so far:

 - error about not finding xml2-config
 - R seg faults and ends

Problems resolved. Don't really know why they occurred, but they no longer happen. So, Bioconductor is installed on Knoppix with a PKDI (persistent Knoppix disk image). Instructions here:

I was even able to add in support for connecting to the MySQL database. As soon as I get the bittorrent tracker running on the cwelug machine again, I'll make the PKDI available for download. In that way Bioconductor will be as easy to run as 1-2-3:

 1) insert Knoppix CD
 2) insert USB stick/drive with PKDI
 3) turn on machine
