Effectively it only moves the default selection one line down. 2) It does not really support multi-arch nor multi-desktop CD/DVDs. 3) It only works because I expect isolinux will use the last 'default' statement it encounters, but having two default statements in a config seems rather ugly to me. 4) It is indeed only a very partial fix. What exactly is the use case this is trying to cover? Unless it is very persuasive I'd be inclined to remove this altogether... > i'm also curious if there is there a planned timeline to upload > debian-cd to unstable soon? We've just implemented the recent changes for daily/weekly builds and everything seems to work. So I guess we could do a release. That would allow you to also update simple-cdd. I expect there will be some cleanup and possibly minor changes after D-I RC2. Not sure if we'd need an additional release after that. Cheers, FJP
