Oh my, this thing is really starting to hunt me :-). Seriously, I recently went on a bug squash for the access floppies which involved a very strange bug in syslinux and various other things. At the end, the access flavour worked again, and I haven't really found time to do a retest since. I'll try and have a look at it very soon (today is my birthday, so expect something after the usual rehabilitation period). > I have not yet tried the disks with a serial terminal or sighted > assistance so I am not even sure how far they are really getting. As you can imagine, this is also my main problem with d-i development. I can't just use any workstation to try it out, I need special equipment like a RealWeasel PCI and a second computer to do the terminal part. > I am sorry that I dropped the ball on creating the udebs in the first > place.

OK, OK, I know I can't have everything at once (at least that is what was once said to me), so I guess detailed feedback is fine too :-). > Also is it possible to get a speakup kernel in to the netinst or > businesscard iso?

I somehow insist on having working floppies first though. It also means getting into debian-cd, which involes quite some requirements for development which I haven't been able to confortable setup yet. -- CYa, Mario
