Hi. I am feeling compelled to help with the new Debian installer, because I strongly believe that sarge needs to have a shorter gestation process than woody did, and I keep hearing that debian-install is likely to be the big bottle neck, and that sarge may end up taking well over 18 months to get released. To me that is simply not acceptable. I can help with testing on several platforms. I have 32 bit and 64 bit SPARC systems that I can netboot and CD boot, G3 and G4 PowerPC Macs, a MIPS R4400 that I can netboot (and probably CD boot) and x86 stuff. I might be able to come up with m68k boxes. I am also willing to help code where necessary. I am about to download the source from cvs.debian.org, and I know about the doc/ subdirectory that I should be reading. Is there anything else that I should know right now? Any hints you can give me? I really want to see sarge released before too long, and am willing to dedicate time to the installer. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
