Re: New Image

[<gary@singular.org>]

After listening to the stink over the weekend about images and firmware
and broken package dependencies and documentation I figure I will just ask
a few point blank questions to save myself some headache. 

- everything I see is netwinder specific.  boot images, roms, therm, etc
  is netwinder baggage avoidable when installing?
- I don't and haven't used debian: I looked at the cd creation pages on
debian.org and found alot of i386 specific stuff.  How can I create a cd
of the current arm port?  the machine I am trying to install is disk space
and bandwith impaired so ftp install or copying to the hard disk is not an
option and what I downloaded was around 800 meg.
- what is the *real* status of Xfree86? 
- what do I need minimally to install the debian port?  e.g. I am working
with a bastardized version of ARMLinux from www.arm.uk.linux.org - will
this suffice to use the debian image?  
- what is the status of the port? how long will it be before it is
considered a "finished" product? 


Thanks in advance,
