Re: Debian disk image



Um, doesn't the NONUS one contain exactly the same stuff as
binary-powerpc-1, except that it has all the good crypto stuff as
well, like sshd and so on?  It's the one I always use.  I would get
the NONUS one unless I was planning on installing on a machine
inside the US and then exporting that machine.  Otherwise, the NONUS
one resides only on mirrors and machines located outside the US so
it is cool for everyone to use.
