Litzenberger - dlitz@dlitz.net As far as i understand it woody's installation is not going to be the all singing/bell whistling install that will be sid... It is therefore based on the boot floppy system from potato with some alterations. Kernel 2.4 is pretty much assured for this release if you look at the timescale posted recently. Currently the install uses cfdisk however if parted is reliable and stable enough (and light enough) for the boot disks then cfdisk may well be out the door. ;) ReiserFS as default seems a bad idea to me, but users should be given the choice. If you can find a lightweight console game then i;m sure they'll include it ;)) rob -- Rob 'robster' Bradford rob@debianplanet.org Founder/Lead Developer: Debian Planet
