Hi,
Sorry I'm a bit late to the thread;
I think a bit of reorganisation of console-* would be a
good idea, post sarge. (Note, with a freeze planned for July 31,
I'm working towards fixing bugs on console-* packages before
then; no disruptive stuff right now).
I've posted some notes on plans I h

Perhaps comments could be added to the .po files to help the

BTW, I also had an Irda install working, at least to loading d-i modules
over net stage: irda from one laptop to another. Again, not tested since

This could be a generic issue: eg if a PC has multiple network

order to that in d-i, the eth0 / eth1 aliases will be different.

I don't think bogl does anything smart about this; it means that
_at_the_console_ entering accents in UTF-8 locales is broken.
While this does not affect d-i at the moment (no dialogs that want
arbitrary text), it means most users will not want UTF-8 locales on the

compile option at the moment, awaiting 2.6 in debian-installer (sometime
this decade, I hope).

Could you send me a copy of the skolelinux-config-udeb ?

Oh, fun.
It appears that of the 125 K (uncompressed) in floppy-modules on i386 at
least, 55 K is vfat and fat modules. How about dropping those if
necessary? (eg, do ext2 support only) If we don't do something, theres
