Note : Locale and Time will need to be reset. Currently Auckland, NZ UTC + 12 hrs

The browser is Firefox 3.0.11 and I have installed some useful add-ons.

I have also installed SystemRescueCD on the first partition, formatted as FAT32
and have just now re-run syslinux to make it bootable. I may have to edit the file
to include the GRUB entry for #! CrunchBang Linux.
