Yeah, debian-installer isn't really designed for machines like the NSLU2. There are in fact installers that run on the host system, such as the one for SLIND, but I don't think anyone has adapted them for Debian and the NSLU2. > Changing from ext3 to ext2 (which avoids the "double write" of > journalling), and using the 'noatime' mount option, saved 45 minutes. That's a very interesting observation. I'll forward this to debian-boot. Maybe this should be done in lowmem mode. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
