Anybody care to throw in their two cents? I do as the instructions say on astlinux.org for getting the development environment ready and I was hoping to try this soon. So, I got the subversion and i can't make. It get's stuck at can't find fakeroot on ftp.debian.org. Should I be using a different machine to do this on or what? If there is another distro that would be much better suited for this then I'm all ears.
