The reason I'm interested in this project is the hypothetical driver
check CD. You walk into a computer shop, boot the CD on a machine, and
it tells you whether the hardware is supported by GNU/Linux (or GNU/Hurd
or whatever).
Hardware support is a moving target. Hence, it would be cool if the
hypothetical driver check CD could be updated frequently by burning
additional tracks (multi-session). I don't like to waste any more CDs
than I already waste!
Since I'm probably not going to be coding this up, maybe such a
requirement is too much to ask. Just my $0.02.
