[ILUG] Debian or Fedora?

[ILUG] Debian or Fedora?

Please be aware that the referenced e-mail is Joey Hess answering a
question about how to modify "debian-installer", which is the
next-generation installer package being beta-tested for the sarge
release.  debian-installer is reportedly pretty darned good (on maybe
two or three of Debian's 11 supported architectures, so far), but it
_is_ beta.  

Scott Kveton's instructions, which I referred you to separately, explain
how to make a custom netinst image (or rather, modify an existing one)
that uses the traditional Debian (3.0/woody) installation framework.

Alternatively, I guess you could do likewise with Morphix or such, but I
have even less knowledge of that.  ;->

Cheers,                   The cynics among us might say:   "We laugh, 
Rick Moen                 monkeyboys -- Linux IS the mainstream UNIX now!
rick at linuxmafia.com       MuaHaHaHa!" but that would be rude. -- Jim Dennis
