Images that will be built today will also include: - a netboot flavour, providing either a small mini.iso with the udebs fetch on the mirror, or files to boot the installer via PXE - a cdrom flavour used by debian-cd to build full images (see #593629). It still fails as it doesn't know how to mount a CD-ROM on GNU/kFreeBSD, and as a few udebs still have to migrate to testing. IMHO here are the remaning things that have to be done on debian-installer before the release: - fix the cdrom flavour by teaching cdrom-detect how to mount a CD-ROM on GNU/kFreeBSD. - provide a way to configure the keyboard. Either with a new udeb, or by modifying console setup to work on kfreebsd. If we can use the xorg keyboard maps on kfreebsd, we can also use a standard way to configure the keyboard on the installed system. - provide a way to parse preseeding options (using kenv) and provide different options in the grub menu. And optionally: - add support for zfs - better UTF-8 support, either by switching fonts or by porting bogl-bterm - add an hd-media flavour - add a xorg/gtk based flavour -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 [email protected] http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
