*sigh*

Well, my manager actually had some CDs - dban.org only has .iso's for CDs,
which I don't know enough to make work with a DVD, so I d/l and burned the
new one, 2.2.6 beta, and it's working now. Interesting... before the menu
came up, it looked like the display from lshw....

Oh, and I *do* have to do at DOD full sanitization: I work at a US gov't
agency, and the machine's being surplused....
