Re: d-i floppy image?



As long as it has been booting we've been seeing wierd things where it boots for
me and not Joey, and vice versa.  Part of this is due to the fact that the code
is still in a state of flux and we always have to have at least a few local
udebs.  Something I'd look into is the creation of /dev/*.  But don't look into
it too much as tonight I hope to commit versions of build and rootskel that
create /dev/* on boot as Eric Andersen suggested.
