ATI HD 4730 Ubuntu/Kubuntu on Karmic 9.10

Unattended XP install
Once again, for future reference I have found a nice little freeware program that can not only automate a windows installation (xp or vista) you can also change what is installed and what isnt including external drivers and programs, hotfixes and updates. Pretty much everthing you can think of

Fixed the SWLPT-54125 Pause doesnt connect Problem
