Just downloaded the the 3.0 iso and got it up and running in no time. I love the simplified backup scheme! No more trying to figure out which package to backup nor fiddling around with destination and type settings for each package. I do have one request (at the moment). Can you include an expanded tree of the kernel modules on the iso image for the next release? Currently it is a tarball and thus is much less convenient to have to extract a file from it. Thanks for a great product! Stephen ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
