Debian installer

I've been modifying the Debian installer for the first release of SprezzOS. It's been quite the PITA.

Build environment

Custom kernel

  • apt-get source linux-2.6
    • apt-get install linux-source-3.2 gets you a /usr/src tarball with no debian/ subdirectory
    • apt-get install linux-source gets you something called 'linux_latest' (investigate!)
  • cd linux-2.6-3.2.14 or whatever
  • dpkg-buildpackage -j8

output includes a full set of udebs:
