Depends which version of 3.4.  20040504 had a scsi problem which caused
the linux26 install to barf: expert26 allowed you to get round this, as
did the "noscsi" option on the command line options to pass to Knoppix.

20040510 fixed this: I don't know what changed in 20040517 - I
downloaded that last night.

HTH,

Andy
