Package: base-installer
Version: 1.72
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hi,

A popular French datacenter called Dedibox [1] is using a specifically
built motherboard with a VIA C7 processor. Via a secure web interface,
you can install Debian Sarge among other distros (with their untrusty
closed source system).

I am currently setting up a documentation to use the official Debian
Installer with the official Debian kernels on that machine. Once done,
I will put a link on the Debian Wiki.

By default, only the -486 subarch is available at most, because
/proc/cpuinfo is different from other x86 machines, i.e. neither
AMD nor Intel... Therefore, I did a patch to get the -686 subarch
available on that distinct hardware with all the flavours, e.g. xen,
vserver, xen+vserver.

Please consider the attached patch against the current SVN.

Cheers,

[1] <http://www.dedibox.fr/>
