same problem here, amiga/amiga-de.bmp <-> bmap
Is this fixed in CVS now? I see
keymaps.sh:     dumpkeys | $scriptdir/loadkeys -b > $kmaptmpdir/$k/$j\.bmap
which might fix this?

I had to move things around as well, its pretty picky. But then, I could
install the base at least.

Nick, can you change the following in CVS please:
ifeq ($(architecture), m68k)
        $(MAKE) resc720atari.bin
        $(MAKE) resc1440atari.bin driversatari.tgz lowmematari.bin
to 
ifeq ($(architecture), m68k)
        $(MAKE) resc1440atari.bin driversatari.tgz

no 720k images for atari and no more lowmem. I guess I could do that myself,
but I dont want to ruin the CVS...

Christian
