Ok I hate to be a leech I really do but I need 2 questions answered….

1. How do I use a windows xp pro modem connection sharing over a RJ-45 crossover cable.

2. How do I get into a GUI from the command prompt seeing as how it sends be to a command prompt every time after I installed it to the HD.

Keep up the great work :)

1.  If your XP connection sharing program uses DHCP (Dynamic IP address creation), you don't need to do anything. Just boot DSL and it will work automatically.

2. Type in:  startx
