Could you guys add something like If you test the image and want to report the results, please use <a href="http://people.debian.org/~pere/debian-installer/report-template.html";>this template</a> to the text about the testing net install images on /CD/netinst/?

There are two build processes, really, first you have to produce the floppy image that goes on the CD. That shouldn't be harder than checking out the d-i cvs, going to the build directory and typing (as root) make TYPE=cdrom floppy_image There's some user-mount-hack there that I don't know how well it works. If you don't want to do this, you can use Tollef's daily builds at http://people.debian.org/~tfheen/d-i/images/ Next, you use debian-cd to build the CDs. I don't really know anything about this, so you'll have to talk to them about it. > Is there some general explanation of the new installer architecture? You can read the docs in http://cvs.debian.org/debian-installer/doc/ Some of it is out of date, but the general architecture still holds. /Martin -- Martin Sjögren [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG key: http://www.mdstud.chalmers.se/~md9ms/gpg.html let hello = "hello" : hello in putStr (unlines hello)
