Excellent howto but..
Are the two reboots needed? Why not stop gdm/kdm/whatever from console while logged in as root and do the install and edits and then again restart. You can simply do this by giving command "telinit 3" while logged in as root from "Alt+Ctl+f1" (console 1) and again "telinit 5" to restart.
or am I going wrong somewhere?
As I explained you can use telinit, but for me it's just a preference not to and I feel the method I used is easier for new comers who really don't need the shortcuts so early in their Linux lives.
Okay. But you lost me there when you wrote something about older/newer cards in the same line.
