I have created a new restore CD, this time I did not skip step 4 :)

It installed successfully onto my Qube 2.

There have been several offers to host the ISO (my outgoing ADSL speed
is too slow for effective hosting), and hopefully several of those who
offered will be able to post links in the near future.

The dmesg is as follows (extra SCSI card is still installed):
