Hi Geoff, Mr. Knopper took a debian system and modified it to allow it boot from a cdrom drive. It uses a combination of test, unstable and custom .deb packages. You can also install it to your hard drive--a 20 min debian install. Once installed you can mold it to a 'true' debian distro by modifing the /etc/apt/sources.list, changeing the kernel, and removeing the custom deb's. There are document 'out there' for this. But basically its debian. -Kev
