systemimager and systemconfigurator are in debian/stable and debian/unstable. the upstream systemimager developers develop on debian. > - image customization : this done automatically (when installing an > image) and it will certainly require some work for the network > interface part that is very different from distro to distro. > SystemImager is already available as a deb from www.systemimager.org, > as well as being part of OSCAR. those debs are only for stable users wanting the latest systemimager. > So imaging might work correctly even > though some of the OSCAR bits originally came from rpms rather than > debs. systemimager-type imaging doesn't care about package format. systeminstaller, which provides an alternate mechanism for creating systemimager-style images, needs debian support added. i have debs for it, but upstream doesn't want it in debian until it can create debian images (although it can create rpm based images on debian just fine). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
