Hi all,
I have rewritten the three d-i utilities (mkfs, mkswap, mount). These
tools now parse the /proc/partition file to determe the available
partitions or other available devices (lvm/raid/...).
I have also attached a patch agains the util-linux source package to
build a new mkswap udeb.

Actually, the Skolelinux project have a simple languagechooser udeb
which does this.

Hello!, im not sure if this is the right list, but ill try here since im having
problems booting.
The cpn5360 is a single board computer, no vga,no keyboard,no usb,no sound,no cdrom or
floppy.
Interfaces on the board is serialport and a eepro100.
It also features PXE booting.
hda is a sandisk 12
The following parts of debian-installer lacks a copyright file:
aboot-installer, grub-installer, elilo-installer, lilo-installer,
prebaseconfig, dasd, netdevice, zipl-installer, and yaboot-installer.
Since I didn't know the original author for these, I'm not submitting
any patch (sorry...)

You don't have those size problems with initrd gotten from, say the
