Davide, I just looked at your site. I think I'll give it a try when I get a bit of time. I'll play with it in vmware first, and then set up a flash drive I can live-boot from. I'm preferential to Debian-based distros, so I'll definitely give yours a try. I have a few questions, though, which you may want to consider putting up on the piren.org website. What is your distro based on? DSL, or a modified Debian that accepts DSL packages? What kernel is your distro running? Is it running the full module selection of that kernel, or a subset? What are the major software versions on it? Specifically, Xorg, Freevo, Samba, that kind of thing.. You may also want to put some info up on it regarding your "target audience" and intended uses. You may also want to put up some developer-type info on the site, like how to compile kernel modules and add them into the .iso. Someone may have hardware that is not supported by your stock kernel, and may need to add in the support after the fact. Hope that helps, and thanks for your response! /Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
