Yah. Right now I would consider Woody installation system as alpha.
If you're studly, you can try testing with 2.3.5 when that comes in.
If you more are interested in the final user experience, wait for like
3 or 4 weeks, or until we freeze the base distribution.

Boot-floppies 2.2.26 update is tagged and buiding for i386 now. It
had some PowerPC updates, but the main reason for this release is to
get the kernel 2.2.19 4potato.2.
Here are the packages I am building with from potato-proposed-updates:
-rw-r--r--1 apharris staff 185934 Jun 7 01
I've changed the ext2 / kernel versioning stuff.
Question is not a double negative anymore.
Default on non-arm is 2.2 support;
Default on arm is 2.0 support
I am considering changing this so that it doesn't even prompt, but
just goes with the defaults, unless 'verbose' is on.
Thoughts?
