Thanks for the links, I did some reading/playing today and downloaded the
package:
http://www.cqure.net/tools09.html

I figured out how to process the .img file (used rawrite2.exe)and it does
fire up OK in bridge mode, its only problem is that "crond" fails to start
and I suspect its looking for a non existant wireless card in my PCMCIA slot.
The console works, as I could read the PCMCIA and DHCPC manuals on screen.
This distro does support some Dlink cards, but the AP900 was not listed.
More work ahead!
