installing debian-live for etch?
Hello I have been playing with this today myself...
I have been using an etch system with live-helper installed from testing/lenny
Doenload the package from here:
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/all/live-helper/download
and install with: dpkg -i live-helper*.deb
The config and build:
lh_config -d etch --bootstrap debootstrap
lh_build
Hope that helps. This method is not as featurefull as others(which
require more backported packages) but at least only requires one
non-etch package! Personally I consider that a bonus!
Regards
Alex Owen
