to be precise, only the few packages needed for netinst (~80mb or so) is available twice - when using live-installer, d-i installs the resulting system not by unpacking .debs from the cdrom, but by unpacking the squashfs to the harddisk. nevertheless, also saving those 'few' MBs would be neat. -- Address: Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ _______________________________________________ debian-live-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-live-devel
