Hi! I'm trying to build cds for the alpha arch as well as for all the other target arches for woody to make them available for testing as aj had sugested.
However I have came into problems when trying to build for alpha when it comes to make the cds bootable, it seems that the script to make them bootable is no longer valid. I have tricked the debian-cd/tools/boot/woody/boot-alpha script so that it would continue without stopping on the first error and I could see all the errors it is outputing, wich are these: Making the binary CDs bootable ...

alpha, wich is the only arch not building right now. Of the other 7 arches wich are right now on Woody 6 are already built, and the other, hppa will be built when new Boot Floppies are uploaded, so only Alpha is missing. Thank you very much in advance!
