Err, ...

yes i think it does, but i have harddisk problems, and cannot test it right
now, but the current cvs bootfloppies builds ok for apus, and it should cause
no problem on other subarches, since all i did was enable the apus stuff. In
particular i did not touch the file list for the rescue disk (so no
amiga-fdisk for now, until i manage to build a multi binary package).

Huh ? what is in this section ? i suppose that it is for copying the stufff
built in the right place. That's why it didn't found stuff in the disks-1.44
directory. I will look at it this evening/tomorrow. Is there any other place
that i should be aware of ?

Do you know who is responsible for the X Windows systm configuration stuff i
get asked ? is it in the boot floppies, or the normal debconf stuff for the X
packages ? apt-get hangs after responding to this questions.

In particular, i don't have /proc/pci, it should be better to look at /proc/fb
in this case. What happens on other subarchs, where you have /proc/pci but are
using fbdev ?
