I'd be interested in installing for you just to see if your qubes worked 
the same as mine did.   There were a couple of things that weren't 
listed in Paul's howto that weren't covered at all.  Particularly the 
dselect stuff (where I never did find 'pump' or the sshd setup option), 
and the fact that I had to fudge some of the urls to get it to work.

So far I've just been playing with the primary ethernet connection.  I 
never did hook up a null cable to the serial port, so I don't know about 
that at all.  Logging into the console has never been a big deal to me - 
as long as I can get into the box via ssh, I'm ok.  It would have been 
more important had I experienced hardware issues during the install.

Iptables installed fine, but I haven't tweaked yet with a full set of 
rules and both ethernet connections running.

I'm really focusing more on just the install process - sort of collating 
all the info I had to roam around the web to find into one place.
