Rowdy:

I have been using 3.99.17 restore cd created by Dennis Chernoivanov without 
any issue, in fact it works very good on my Qube and it does not  have any 
problem at the moment to set up the network, you should give it a try!!.

Now that 3.0.1 is out, have somebody try it on a Qube??.

Thanks.
