Re: Fwd: Call for Debian Installer testing, before D-I Beta1 release
Aware of the issue, I wanted to know if we could get access to a
version of the latest Debian installer with the Intel microcode
(perhaps available at slug-firmware.net). This way we can test the
latest installer on the NSLU2, thereby avoiding the problems we had
with 4.0r1.
