Yes, we can get a working set for sure. We're pretty close now. We
just have a problem with the drivers disk, and the auto-detection
stuff doesn't work as well as it ought yet, but that will be fixed by
2.2.4 which will be out shortly.
I might be a little out of it since I just got back from vacation last
night.
modconf is still a worry -- its not getting along with dbootstrap and
is way out of date still.
I guess the perl-5.005-base problems have been fixed but I don't know
if that's been tested.
I'd like to see how far we can go with debconf'ing the
post-installation tasks (shadow passwords etc). That may or may not
make it.
Likewise, it looks like installation of base via http is sorta there
-- hopefully, ftp will make it in too.
dhcp/bootp is a sketchy one. I really hope it makes it in but its not
there at all yet.
