well again, this was a "I know what the hell i'm doing" approach, meaning i already knew what i needed to do to get the system up and running. it doesn't bring over the autoconfiguration stuff, and yes, i'm sure i glossed over a few details (like compiling my own kernel package + nvidia, both of which i did in the chroot while still on the boot cd). the autoconfiguration i was talking about had more to do with the boot-off-of-cd process, such that it could boot me into a fully functional X-windows KDE system with sound and games and internet etc, to keep myself occupied whilst the system debootstrapped. sean
