Phil,

Thanks for the update.

One thing I would recommend is for you to zip up the disk image prior
to publishing it. Although 61Mb isn't *that* large in this age of
broadband, but I imagine with compression it would be *much* smaller
and therefore a lot quicker to download.

I haven't tried out your disk image as yet, but once I find some free
time I will definitely be interested in installing it on my CFFA and
reliving the old times.  :-)

Thanks,
Mike
