Sorry, didn't recognise the e-mail address.  You've already asked questions!

Your 7020 should boot just fine with the external CD.  There's been a few 
people that have used it over the past year or so.  The CD image from the 
website should give you a console either on an attached monitor if you're using 
an S3 video card, or on serial port 1.

It has support for a Weitek video card compiled in, but I don't have one to 
test so can't tell you if it works or not.

The boot floppy image will also work, but I have had trouble with it hanging 
when it asks for the root floppy.  Other people with 7020's don't seem to have 
this problem though.

Cheers,

James
