Chris and Gustav (and others for info),

     at the end of the month we will finish instaling our new linux mostly
with new versions of all major components. By then I except you will have
writen instructions for windows and I will then test the installation, and
modify your instructions ...

 Hope this helps ... sorry but there isn't really much time to do more.
