Don't let this thread die as it has before...  Someone always submits an
"I got it working" type note, with sparse to no details on how and with
which version of Windows...  If *anyone* gets this working, please
document exactly how, and with which exact version of windows.  Then
publish it here and on usenet, if not also the web.  Please.

That's all that's left that I need from Win4lin, and I can get my boss to
buy it and let me run linux.  :)
