Erik,

That's a wonderful piece of news.  I went and grabbed it and loop mounted 
it and it looks perfect.  8-)  I'm going to trim a couple of the things 
that I don't need and then start adding the stuff I do.  That saves a huge 
amount of time for me, so muchos gracias.

You built this with buildroot right?  If so, I might try building via that 
route just to see how it does it.

Thanks,

Jean
