I've just posted all of the images:
http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rule/images-0.7.0/

Other than the boot.img all are completely untested, as I don't have a
laptop available for testing. Let me know if they work, or what goes
wrong, please?

Also, please let us know how the whole thing looks with a monochrome 
display, so we know if this is something we need to look at?
