It looks to be not included in squeeze's cd1: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/release/6.0.5/i386/list-cd/debian-6.0.5-i386-CD-1.list.gz Unfortunately its also not on wheezy's beta1 cd1 either: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/wheezy_di_beta1/i386/list-cd/debian-wheezy-DI-b1-i386-CD-1.list.gz But it does look like that will change once the new tasks are implemented: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/tmp/new-tasks/2012-07-08 Best wishes, Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
