Newbie questions



Hi,
I'm a newbie really interested in this project.
Just to make something useful I'm helping with the italian translation of po 
files but I'd like to put my hands 
on the code since I work as a programmer. I took a look at the IRC channel 
and asked a few questions... I also 
took a look at the documentation available.

I wanted to try the installer and I've issued 'make demo' inside the 'build' 
directory and I got

E: Couldn't find package kernel-image-2.4.20-1-386-udebn
make: *** [floppy-get_udebs-stamp] Error 100

a google search and the following allowed me to step foreward a little bit

perl -pi -e 's|\\2\\n\)|\\2)|g' Makefile

i run 'make demo' again and this is what I get
....
