With the current status of Dazuko, it is not possible to write a generic HOWTO. Depending on the system, the way to install Dazuko can be quite different. (Which is why the HOWTO on the Dazuko website is basically useless for users of a recent Linux kernel.) Writing a HOWTO for a specific system is easy if I have that system. Otherwise, I require help from others that have such a system. The main reason the Dazuko website was changed to a Wiki is so that others could help improving the documentation. Perhaps if I create a few partial HOWTO's for various systems (Fedora, Ubuntu, openSUSE), others will be more motivated to fill in the blanks. I will try to do something like this in the near future. > How do you think this would be affected when there are kernel > updates through the normal update channels for ubuntu?

What do you think? The page mentions a lot of things that are unnecessary, non-optimal, or outdated. In the end, as long as Dazuko is installed, I guess it doesn't matter. (Dazuko either works 100% or 0%.) But I think the page could be improved to make it clearer when a person is supposed to use which method of installation.
