One more question; I am preparing this install on a i386-based computer. How would I go about preparing powerpc boot disks? I tried changing the 'archs' line in the config file to just i386 and powerpc, but only i386 boot-floppies got created to the best of my knowledge when I ran make release. - Jimmy Kaplowitz jimmy@debian.org On Sun, Jul 01, 2001 at 05:15:34PM -0400, Jimmy Kaplowitz wrote: > Hi there boot people.
