Re: minimal boot/install CD
Do you mean that this image doesn't have base.tgz in
it? Hmmm, well maybe I can download the image, mount
it using /dev/loop as /dev/cdrom, copy the whole
structure to a directory on my hd, and then add the
base package, re-master the image, and burn it
(phew!).
Looks like it would still fit on one of those business
card cd-r's (they hold about 60mb). Cool way to
distribute debian to anyone willing to download it who
doesn't want to first put windows on the machine or
deal with a stack of floppies.
