I've committed the debian-cd changes with a few very minor (style) corrections. The implementation is IMO quite nice and clean. The size increase from enabling the Xen variant for the m-a netinst is 55MB (main changes are ~20MB from the extra bigmem kernel image and ~30MB from added D-I kernels and initrds). This is a fairly big increase, but the multi-arch netinst can handle it. Ian: feel free to commit the changes for D-I (after the corrections) and when that's done I'll enable the Xen variant for the CD builds.

Oh yes, strange that I didn't see an error. I guess I got lucky by using all_build so cdrom_gtk had always already been built or something. The amd64 netboot-xen which is already committed has the same problem -- I'll fix that right away. > I've been wondering if the cdrom-xen target should be built automatically > with the cdrom_isolinux target, but I guess that has both advantages and > disadvantages.

I've been wondering if the cdrom-xen target should be built automatically with the cdrom_isolinux target, but I guess that has both advantages and disadvantages.
