If you can identify which config options need to be enabled for a v3.9 kernel (which I think is due to hit Sid soon) then a wishlist bug would do the job. Likewise if there are some backports required etc you could request them in the same bug. Looks like CONFIG_ARCH_SUNXI is part of the multi_v7_defconfig upstream, which suggests it would be a candidate for being enabled in the new mp (multiplatform) kernel flavour. > >> > The main thing you need to be included in the image to make it this type > >> > seems to be the network-console openssh-server-udeb udebs. > >> > debian-installer/build/pkg-lists/network-console also lists > >> > libnss-files-udeb > >> > >> ah good. that's a big clue. got hold of network-console.udeb and > >> openssh-server.udeb, unpacking them... ah ha! > >> bin/network-console-menu and friends, _great_. > >> > >> hmmm... now... where's the best place to put these [for execution as > >> /sbin/telnetd -l /bin/network-console-something] > > > > Put them?
