Am I guessing correctly that the package linux-elm contains the kernel image? I'd rather try and extract the kernel + modules only as I have no intention to move away from Debian. A list of options that must be enabled in the kernel for the R13, as well instructions for building the image to be flashed to the kernel partition would also be very helpful. With these we might be able to get full support for the R13 in the Debian kernel and flash-kernel. Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser
