What is /debian/boot? Is that part of the initrd? Or are you saying that /boot could be initialized as HFS during partitioning? Penguin can use a kernel on HFS of course -- I wonder if emile can? If you make /boot HFS, the kernel is limited to a read-only mount, and so you'd need special tools to write to it: hfsprogs, hfsplus and/or hfsutils. So installing kernel debs isn't going to be much easier. The nice thing about Emile is that Penguin's MacOS/HFS vs. Linux/Ext2 problem doesn't happen because there is no MacOS.

Does emile normally list boot blocks? They are found in the first 1024 bytes of an HFS partition, but of course the partition map itself doesn't know about partition contents... -f > > regards, > --ee > > > > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
