I am in complete agreement that we would not want to include EVMS, XFS or similar in our default kernel unless (or until) they are part of the official kernel. However, I am willing to do some work to support EVMS in d-i, and to provide EVMS-enabled installation media for those who are interested in trying it. If I can use this experience to improve volume management support in d-i, then I would hope that my contributions would be welcome. -- - mdz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
