Thanks David for the FC2 disks, which I have care of for Installfest.
Preliminary impressions - great!

This strikes me as a good idea, that would help cohere the Mandrake
SuSE setup tests.
We have a phoneline there, which if IPCop can be made to dial into, then
firewall/route to the other boxes, we can progress onto the Installfest
