Thanx for responding;
I will indeed follow the link you provided,
when U say below to build the images myself
is there a how to or something
I'd love to do this based on 4.5 and include only the
items I need such as nfs support, telnetd, ifconfig
etc and exlude a lot of the stuff that i find fluff
for me anyways ..
