A few months ago I put together a Debian floppy-maker script for usage on powerpc. The script depends on the MacOS-provided Applescript 'shell' and the scriptable Disk Copy program. The point was made before, that since these MacOS programs are not free (they come with all MacOS distributions), a script depending on them would not be Debian-distributable.
I accepted that at the time, but I wonder, then, how we can distribute setlang.bat. (Aside from the point that with Lang-Chooser, AFAIK setlang.bat is obsolete.) Not to mention BootX and BootVars, which depend on MacOS resources also, although not separate MacOS programs like Disk Copy. So my question is, could/should we include MakeDebianFloppy.sit in the archive after all? The script itself is GPL. It really is pretty convenient, it's almost as easy to use as dd :-) . -- *------v--------- Installing Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 --------v------* | <http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/installmanual> | | debian-imac (potato): <http://debian-imac.sourceforge.net> | | Chris Tillman [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | May the Source be with you | *----------------------------------------------------------------* -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
