Is it Amiga or amiga? More on debian-boot soon, release.sh needs some work.

Yup, but as I said, a new image should be in incoming. I also rebuilt your
atari image, with your config file. Can you test tht, Michael?

Installing should work, I did not try to boot that.

Some more things I noted, the amiga.lzh archive needs to be overhauled, new
icons (nearly finished), new directory structure, all bf files are in
images-1.44, no longer in debian. So I just move amiboot and the scripts
also to install-1.44?
There was no debian-amiga.txt... I copied the install.txt from slink, this
file desperately needs some work...
amiboot and the scripts dont have the "x" flag set in the lha file created,
but they should be all executable? How do these flags map to AOS, there was
something weird...
The amigainstall.lzh file lists the contents as packed with lh6, when I
tried it once to unpack such an archive, lha on the Amiga failed, seems I
have to force lha in the scripts to create .h5 files... what about atari?
