Ok. Well today I sort of banged around with this stuff a bit. I need to install on a machine so you know how that goes. Toss something together to make it work for the time being. Anyway the debian installer is in horrible shape as of 2 days ago. But I would like to get the debian install utils together to put together my own set of rootfs images and speakup kernel and so forth. I don't really see where to find the udebs. What is different about a udeb from a normal kernel-image.deb? Where is a good place to catch up to speed on the debian installer? Thanks Frank
