I don't know if you can use my work, I hacked up the debian-cd boot-<arch> scripts pretty bad to get the images smaller, and also to allow boot-image-flavor selection for BIOSes that support ElTorito alternate boot images. For some silly reason, the boot-<arch> scripts copy the boot disk images into an 'install' directory, even though it's completely possible to boot from the copies in dists/woody/main/disks-i386/current/ - Does anyone know why it does this? It's a pretty big waste of space, imo. You can find my hacked version at http://people.debian.org/~ieure/netinst/ ... it currently doesn't work properly with b-f 3.0.19, that will be fixed as soon as I have a new netinst release prepared... Later tonight or over the weekend, I imagine. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
