I may go get myself a copy, I'll give Linux Emporium a call this morning.

I only have a v90 modem so downloading it is a no-no.

Thanks again,

Dave.

IIRC, SNF doesn't install X at all.  I think the 32mb requirement is
more for the installer as DrakX goes in GUI mode (but I think you can
do the install in text mode the same way as with 8.0).

All the SNF configuration is done via a special HTTPS port (8200 I
believe), so you do the configuration by connecting to it on that port
from another machine.
